Independent Chair Proposal Wins at Moody’s

April 26, 2011 2:22 PM | Posted by Ning Chiu | Print this page

Perhaps as another fallout of the financial crisis, Moody's shareholders approved an independent chair proposal with 56% support, a substantial increase from the two prior years which saw votes at more typical levels for this proposal - 33% and 30%. It's been reported that the proponents, Hermes and Laborers International, actively campaigned and cited the financial crisis as a key reason to support the proposal. More than 15 independent chair proposals will be voted on this season.
