Georgia Stewart: On Stewardship, Pass-Through Voting and Shareholder Democracy.

Welcome to the Boardroom Governance Podcast. I’m your host, Evan Epstein. In this episode, I talk with Georgia Stewart, the CEO and co-founder of Tumelo, a UK based fintech company that builds technology to solve voting challenges for fund managers, investors, and investment platforms. Georgia is also a member of Aviva’s Independent Governance Committee (IGC). In this podcast, we talk about the rise of institutional investors, pass-through voting, and ESG vs anti-ESG trends both in the US and the UK. We also discuss the role of proxy advisors, the surge of retail investing post-pandemic, and how issuers and directors should approach the evolving investor landscape.
