Proxy voting resources
Shareholders of a company have the right to vote on certain aspects of the company's business, such as the election of the company's directors and the appointment of auditors.
A proxy is the document that companies send to shareholders to get their voting instructions.
Equity portfolios hold shares of companies and are entitled to exercise the voting rights attached to those shares. Fixed income portfolios may also have an opportunity to vote by proxy on bondholder resolutions, or where an allocation may include formal voting rights.

These records are specific to portfolios managed by RBC BlueBay Asset Management where we have vote discretion. Proposals, management voting recommendations, and vote instructions can be seen for the relevant companies.
Our proxy voting records are available on our regional websites in accordance with applicable regulations:
Proxy Voting Guidelines
The RBC GAM Proxy Voting Guidelines (“Guidelines”) summarise the corporate governance principles which we will generally support through the exercise of votes on these issues.
Proposals, including those on business issues specific to the issuer or those raised by shareholders of the issuer, are addressed on a case-by-case basis with a focus on the potential impact of the vote on shareholder (or in the case of bond investments, bondholder) value.
The Guidelines are applied in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand. In all other markets, RBC GAM utilises the local proxy voting guidelines of Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”).
