Proxy Advisors

Proxy advisors are organizations that analyze corporate shareholder proposals and provide recommendations to investors on how to vote on issues like executive compensation or board elections. They review company information, governance practices, and industry context to advise institutional investors—such as pension funds or mutual funds—helping them make informed voting decisions at shareholder meetings. Their goal is to promote good governance and transparency, but their influence can vary depending on investor reliance and the accuracy of their recommendations.
