Institutional investors are increasingly expected to ensure beneficiary preferences are reflected in voting decisions. However, pooled fund structures often make this challenging.
Balancing multiple client wishes within pooled funds requires operational, regulatory, and technological solutions.
Expression of Wish
Expression of Wish is a mechanism that allows asset owners to communicate their voting preferences to their asset managers.
While these preferences are not legally binding, they play a crucial role in shaping voting decisions and are increasingly seen as a best practice in the industry.
Minerva provides secure and intuitive tools to capture and aggregate these preferences on a large scale, ensuring compliance with GDPR regulations.
Split-Fund Pooled Voting
Split voting allows investors to direct votes for their specific portion of a pooled fund, ensuring their unique preferences are represented.
Unlike the expression of wish, which communicates preferences without legal obligation, split voting provides a direct mechanism for executing those preferences.
Minerva supports this process by offering automated workflows and infrastructure, enabling clients to efficiently manage and execute split votes, reducing operational burdens.
