As part of Ashmore's investor relations activities the Company regularly engages with its major shareholders on a range of matters. During the year, executive management from the Company, the Board Chairman and Chairman of the Remuneration Committee consulted with a number of its shareholders and proxy advisor bodies to discuss the business being proposed at the Company's AGM to gain a better understanding of reasons for shareholders voting against any particular resolution, (such as Resolution 19) . Ashmore remains committed to engaging with shareholders on issues of concern to ensure that its policies and practice are transparent, clear and understood in the context of Ashmore's business model and performance, in particular its proposals regarding remuneration policy and the Rule 9 waiver. The Board is kept fully informed of, and assesses, any shareholder feedback relating to such matters.
The above summary of proxy votes will shortly be available on the Company's website, www.ashmoregroup.com.
