The 2025 Proxy Season: What Happened?

The National Association of Corporate Directors, Chapters from New England and Philadelphia, are co-leading a program on the upcoming proxy season.  This program will cover the trends from the 2025 proxy season which are expected to be major issues in the upcoming proxy season (2026). Issues continue to expand - and rapidly change - along with both demands and risks for the Board and the Company.

The Panel will focus on the KEY ISSUES Companies and Boards will be facing in the upcoming proxy season.  Key areas include compensation, shareholder, engagement, regulatory and disclosure requirements affecting board composition, candidate slates and performance compensation. The panel will provide an overall understanding of what has changed in the world of Board Directors over the past year that will directly influence the approach to the proxy season. In addition, the panel will discuss potential impacts of new regulations expected from the SEC along with increased scrutiny of existing requirements including ESG areas (Environment, Social and Governance). As institutional shareholders continue their efforts to influence and focus the Boardroom on their priorities, they are further increasing their active engagement with both management and Boards in various ways. What do Directors need to know ahead of the upcoming proxy season and for what pitfalls should they prepare?
