ING IM Europe's voting policy

ING IM Europe has drawn up its own, more detailed voting policy for best serving your interests as a client while complying with the relevant regulations and standards. We manage these voting rights on your behalf with the same level of care, professionalism and prudence as we manage your shares.

ING IM Europe is supported in determining its voting conduct by RiskMetrics Group (RMG). RMG provides ING IM Europe with research about the companies on which ING IM is to cast votes. In addition, RMG advises on how to vote on the topics placed on the agendas of the relevant companies’ annual or extraordinary general meetings of shareholders. RMG also handles the administration process surrounding the voting.

We publish our voting activity for Clients Assets held in mutual funds and Proprietary Assets on our website (www.ingim.com). We provide regularly updated, detailed information on our voting conduct, including information per ballot, see link below.
