CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT is an integral advisor in proxy contests. Our team has worked on many of the highest profile proxy fights on behalf of some of the most well-known companies and investors.

We work closely with clients and their legal advisors, investment bankers, and IR team to devise and implement the most effective campaign strategies.

We help clients assess vulnerabilities and provide strategic advice on how such exposure can be mitigated or exploited. Our experience helping companies successfully defend against (or, ideally, altogether avoid) dissident shareholders as well as our track record helping investors achieve their objectives in proxy fights provides meaningful insight on the latest defense and activist tactics.

We leverage our extensive relationships with institutional investors and in-depth familiarity with their often-nuanced voting guidelines to create compelling messaging that drives voting decisions. We also coordinate engagement and prepare clients for this critical dialogue.  Our ability to assess the influence of ISS and Glass Lewis on a campaign and our knowledge of what drives their voting recommendations enables us to craft and coordinate messaging to generate their support.

We are fluent in all aspects of campaign mechanics and help ensure things run smoothly and avoidable obstacles are averted. Our call center is highly trained to generate support and rebut opposition and we provide frequent and transparent reporting to keep clients and advisors informed of each campaign’s progress.
