VPS Unit Holders’ Meeting

Euronext Securities Oslo offers fund managers an efficient solution for preparing and arranging unit holders’ meetings. With VPS Unit Holders’ Meeting it is easy to sign up and participate in the meeting, appoint a proxy and vote by proxy. The service simplifies the administration of unit holders’ meetings.

 

After registering the results from the votes, the fund managers will be able to extract reports and protocols.

 

Our service includes functionality for:

  • setting up new meetings
  • registering meeting agendas
  • distributing invitations to unit holders
  • signing up for the meeting
  • proxy voting
  • attendance by proxy
  • registering results from the voting
  • reports and protocols

The shareholder register is the basis for defining eligible voters and their respective voting share.

VPS can distribute invitations to investors who have their e-mail address registered in VPS Client Services. Euronext Securities Oslo can also produce lists to be used as a basis for distributing invitations to investors who do not have their e-mail registered in the Euronext Securities Oslo.

A unique reference number and PIN-code is generated for each unit holder to be used for signing up for the meeting. It is possible to sign up in VPS Client Services or through a link (provided by Euronext Securities Oslo) on the fund manager’s website.

Prior to the commencement of the unit holders’ meeting, the fund manager can keep track of who has signed up, who has voted or appointed a proxy for the meeting. Directly after the meeting, the fund manager can update the results from the voting and extract protocols and reports.
