  • Fund Proxy Voting — Challenges, Costs, and Pathways to Modernization.  This panel will examine challenges funds face in obtaining a quorum for shareholder meetings, particularly as retail participation patterns evolve and intermediated account structures complicate outreach. Panelists will discuss the current proxy voting framework, costs associated with solicitation, and potential avenues for modernization.
