Shareholder proposals
5 Report on Overseeing Risks Related to Discrimination Including Religious/Political Views Vote rationale: We will not support a shareholder proposal where the company does not appear to have significant gaps in their management or reporting of the relevant sustainability risk. We assess companies against our public expectations on environmental and social issues. We may consider direction of travel and pace of change as part of our assessments. Global Voting Guidelines Aksjonærforslag om bærekraft Against Against
6 Report on Lobbying Payments and Policy Vote rationale: The board should account for material sustainability risks facing the company, and the broader environmental and social consequences of its operations and products. Sustainability disclosures should be aligned with applicable global reporting standards and frameworks to support investors in their analysis of risks and opportunities. Where a company’s disclosure does not meet our needs as a financial investor, we will consider supporting a well-founded shareholder proposal calling for reasonable disclosure. We will not support a shareholder proposal that appears to impose a strategy or prescribe detailed methods, unrealistic timeframes or targets for implementation.

7 Report on Clean Energy Supply Financing Ratio Vote rationale: We will not support a shareholder proposal that appears to be overly prescriptive in regard to the company’s strategy and/or operations, or that sets unrealistic timeframes, targets or methods for implementation.
