Glass Lewis’s Policy Update Process
Glass Lewis historically has conducted a less formal process for annual voting policy updates, compared to ISS. On its “current policies” page, you can submit feedback on policy guidelines by emailing guidelinescomments@glasslewis.com. You can email Glass Lewis at any time, but if you want your feedback to be considered for the 2024 guidelines, you should probably reach out this month.
This year, a few members have informed us that Glass Lewis is also running a policy survey for its clients, which seeks feedback on specific governance, sustainability, and executive compensation topics. As a reminder, Glass Lewis’s policy updates last year related to board diversity, board oversight of E&S issues, director overboarding, cyber risk oversite, officer exculpation, and long-term incentives being tied to performance – and the updates are usually published in November or December.
