What is shareholder activism?

Shareholder activism explained

Written by Liv Campbell

Shareholder activism involves using our rights as shareholders to push big companies to do better on issues including climate action, nature protection and social justice.

Even a small handful of shareholders coming together by joining a campaign can push a big company to start listening and acting.

If 100 shareholders come together, this unlocks the right for SIX to lodge a resolution (a formal item for discussing and voting) at the company’s Annual General Meeting (AGM). That’s a powerful way of putting the issue in the spotlight, in front of other shareholders and the media, as we push the company for change.
