Results of Annual General Meeting ("AGM")
Ashmore Group plc held its AGM earlier today and in view of the COVID-19 pandemic it was held as a 'closed meeting', attended by the minimum necessary quorum of two shareholders. All valid proxy votes were included in the poll taken at the meeting.
All resolutions were passed. Resolutions 5, 6, 7 and 8, relating to the re-election of Independent Non-Executive Directors, were carried by a majority of votes cast by both Independent Shareholders as well as by a majority of votes cast by all shareholders.
The Company welcomes the approval by shareholders of its Remuneration Policy and Remuneration Report, however it notes the 30.84% vote against the Remuneration Policy. The Company has an ongoing programme of engagement with its shareholders and proxy advisers and consequently it understands the views held by certain governance teams. This engagement will continue and the Company will provide an update within the next six months, as required by the UK Corporate Governance Code 2018.
The results of the poll on each resolution were as follows:
