You are welcome to attend the Annual General Meeting of a company whose shares you hold. However, because of our omnibus structure, you cannot register your attendance to a shareholder meeting directly.
There are two ways in which you might participate in an Annual General Meeting.
1. Attendance with a UBO certificate.
Upon your request, we can issue you with a certificate of Ultimate Beneficiary Ownership (UBO). You can use this certificate to request access to the Annual General Meeting so you can participate. To request such a certificate, please send an e-mail to our corporate actions department via ca@degiro.com which contains the following:
- The name and ISIN of the security for which you would like to prove UBO
- The date for which you would like to issue the UBO (the date can be requested from the organiser).
In your application, please also give your consent to the payment of the one-off costs which can be found in our Fee Schedule. Please note that we can only process requests that were sent from the e-mail address you registered with us.
(in table) Please note: As we cannot guarantee attendance with the UBO certificate, we kindly ask you to enquire in advance with the organizer of the general meeting whether such a certificate would be sufficient for attendance.
2. registration shareholders' meeting
Upon request to ca@degiro.com, our specialist department can register you for the shareholders' meeting. The cost of registration can be found in our Fee Schedule. Registration through DEGIRO guarantees your participation in the event. Please confirm in your request that you agree with the costs incurred.
