Foundation for Stockholder Democracy
The Foundation for Stockholder Democracy is committed to strengthening corporate governance by equipping stockholders with the knowledge and tools to effect change. Our mission is to empower shareholders to actively participate in shaping the companies they invest in.
Our Core Offerings
1. Running Proxy Contests
We provide comprehensive mentoring on how stockholders can initiate and manage proxy contests by:
- Understanding the proxy contest process.
- Developing effective strategies to influence corporate decisions.
- Navigating legal and regulatory requirements.
- Building support among fellow shareholders.
This program is designed for stockholders who want to take a direct role in driving governance improvements.
2. Engaging with Activist Investors
For shareholders who prefer not to lead proxy contests, we offer guidance on how to present their ideas to established activist investors. Our mentorship includes:
- Identifying reputable and successful activist investors.
- Crafting compelling proposals to gain their attention.
- Communicating effectively to align with their strategies.
- Leveraging their expertise to advocate for change.
This approach enables stockholders to amplify their influence by collaborating with experienced activists.
Our Commitment
The Foundation for Stockholder Democracy believes that informed and engaged shareholders are essential to fostering accountable and transparent corporate governance. Through our mentorship programs, we aim to democratize the process of corporate influence, ensuring that every stockholder has the opportunity to make their voice heard.
