  • COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update
    COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update 2020 AGM mid-season review FROM EQUINITI 01 Looking back and planning ahead It is incredible to note that it has been over 12 weeks since the official announcement on 23 March of the UK Government’s Stay at Home Measures, and nearly seven months since the severity of the pandemic became apparent in China. Over the said period, PLC boards, company secretaries and investor relations officers have kept their corporate calendars going thanks to rapid adoption of modified regulatory guidelines and inventive modes of engagement with investors. With annual general meetings being an obvious highlight in the corporate calendar, we take stock of the progress made so far over the 2020 AGM season, as well as using what we learned to plan ahead. Now that we are over the first ‘hump’ with the busy period of May AGMs out of the way, we are readying for the second ‘peak’ of June and July AGMs, and then an ‘easing’ until the second ‘mini’ season in the early autumn. As such, in this update, we look at: • 2020 AGM season statistics…so far • Proxy adviser engagement and ISS recommendations review • High-level assumptions for Q3 and Q4 • Relevant updates from the regulators, industry bodies and proxy advisers • Communications in the COVID-19 world – special commentary by leading financial PR firm,Camarco • How has COVID-19 impacted activism – special commentary by international law firm,White & Case 02 2020 AGM Season Statistics…so far Scope of data To assess progress and forecast what is to come, we look at the key statistics for the UK AGM season 2020 thus far.

  • How to Sell Your House Online Online Sites Offer Virtually All the Services Of
    How to sell your house online Online sites offer virtually all the services of a traditional estate agent – and their fees can be thousands of pounds lower Sunday 7 July 2013 Online seller Ron Houston: 'They did everything I would expect from a traditional estate agent, with the exception that I had to conduct viewings myself, but I actually enjoyed that side of it.' Photograph: Antonio Olmos for the Observer As the housing market gathers momentum, one group of people hoping to rake in the cash will be estate agents. But a growing number of house sellers are shunning the traditional approach and marketing their properties online, saving thousands of pounds in the process. While high-street estate agents charge between 1.5% and 2% of the sale price, or up to a whopping £6,000 on a £300,000 property, online rivals offer a flat fee of between £250 and £1,000. This breed of private-sale sites and low-cost online agents now accounts for around 5% of completed sales, according to the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors. The biggest sites all report a rising number of property listings and sales, and the ability to save sellers a chunk of cash, as the sites do not need to fund a chain of offices and company cars. For example, eMoov, which sold 520 properties worth a combined £170m in 2012, has 850 properties for sale, says founder Russell Quirk. "We will sell your property for a flat fee of £395 plus VAT," he says, adding that eMoov saved its average customer £3,846 last year.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This agenda item seeks approval to submit the annual Holocaust Era and Northern Ireland reporting to the California Legislature and forward letters to companies identified as having unresolved claims or are not adhering to the MacBride Principles of Nondiscrimination. STRATEGIC PLAN This agenda item supports statutory requirements and does not directly support the CalPERS Strategic Plan. INVESTMENT BELIEFS This agenda item supports statutory requirements and does not directly support the CalPERS Investment Beliefs. BACKGROUND In 1999 the California Legislature enacted a statute (SB 1245, Chapter 216) that requires CalPERS to monitor and annually report on investment holdings in companies that do business in California and that owe compensation to victims of slave or forced labor during World War II. The Holocaust Era Holdings Report is provided as Attachment 1. CalPERS is also required to investigate and report to the Legislature (SB 105, Chapter 341) on whether any corporations operating in Northern Ireland, in which assets of CalPERS are invested, are not in compliance with laws applicable in Northern Ireland. These laws in particular, adhere to the MacBride Principles of Nondiscrimination in employment and freedom of workplace opportunities. The Northern Ireland Holdings Report is provided as Attachment 2. Agenda Item 4b Investment Committee February 18, 2014 Page 2 of 3 ANALYSIS The 2013 MSCI Holocaust Era report (Attachment 3) identifies two CalPERS holdings in companies that are facing lawsuits in Japan or China over the use of forced or slave labor during World War II.
