Making the most of the AGM at a complex time
In an uncertain landscape, these meetings are as crucial for calming investors’ nerves as for inspiring confidence in the organisation’s long-term strategy
AS THE annual general meeting (AGM) season approaches, the uncertainty that looks set to define this year’s business environment will likely cloud these shareholder gatherings.
While last year’s AGMs were marked by energy and enthusiasm as companies eagerly laid out their plans to bounce back from the pandemic, we can expect a more tempered sentiment this time.
After all, companies have been grappling with a host of challenges, including significant inflation, high interest rates, compressed margins and geopolitical tensions – and these are not expected to diminish anytime soon.
