3 Proxy voting at a glance We apply internationally accepted corporate governance principles to arrive at voting decisions that are in the best interests of our clients. Carola van Lamoen Head of Governance & Active Ownership Proxy voting is an effective way of exercising shareholder rights and is one of the main pillars of active ownership. Voting at the annual general meetings (AGM) of companies held in our portfolios provides us with an opportunity to improve corporate governance at the board level. Our Governance & Active Ownership team has been voting on behalf of Robeco Group s institutional clients since 1998, when proxy voting emerged as an instrument for promoting responsible investing. Today, proxy voting is considered standard practice and has become a minimum requirement for many asset owners. Exercising voting rights is also an important part of complying with investors commitment to the second principle of the Principles for Responsible Investing (PRI), which calls upon asset managers and asset owners to be active owners and incorporate ESG issues into their ownership policies and practices. By contributing to the development of corporate governance practices and standards on behalf of our clients, our dedicated proxy voting team offers additional benefits to investors. We also complement our proxy voting activities by engaging with the companies in our portfolios on governance issues to maximize the impact of our clients shareholder rights. Governance & Active Ownership 1
4 Adding value through proxy voting Our dialogue with a company before we vote at an AGM can have a meaningful impact on corporate governance and in some cases, attending the AGM and speaking out on our position further strengthens our voice and that of our clients. Michiel van Esch Governance Engagement Specialist RobecoSAM s dedicated voting team offers a comprehensive proxy voting service and currently votes on behalf of clients at approximately 3,000 meetings per year. Our Governance & Active Ownership team manages the entire proxy-voting process. We ensure that all the requirements of parties in the voting chain, such as acting as power of attorney in specific markets, are met. For discretionary mandates, we can develop a tailor-made voting policy. A proxy voting disclosure website for every client as well as voting rationale reports are included in our service. Voting policy Our voting policy is based on the widelyaccepted principles of the International Corporate Governance Network (ICGN), which provide a broad framework for assessing companies corporate governance practices. The ICGN principles offer scope for companies to be assessed according to local standards, national legislation and corporate-governance codes of conduct. We also take into account companyspecific circumstances when casting our vote. Integration of voting and engagement Many asset owners outsource voting to one of the large players in proxy voting services. RobecoSAM s Governance & Active Ownership service, however, adds a unique layer of insight resulting from our integration of voting and engagement with our proxy voting activities. Reporting of voting activities Our clients can access a proxy voting disclosure website that provides timely and accurate disclosure of all votes cast for companies in their portfolio. We also provide a quarterly voting rationale report that explains why we have voted against management at high-profile meetings and highlights the most important developments in corporate governance in certain markets. 2 Governance & Active Ownership
5 Ensuring a fully informed voting decision We use sector and country-specific knowledge from our investment analysts to vote at all meetings for companies in our investment universe and write a corporate governance analysis for every high-profile AGM. Perihan Demir Engagement Analyst We have established a proxy voting policy based on ICGN principles and test every voting decision against that policy. For all routine agenda items, we employ the electronic proxy voting platform from service provider Glass Lewis to cast our vote, enabling our dedicated voting team to focus on the high-profile meetings where we can make an impact through our voting activities. High-profile meetings are meetings where issues around remuneration, board independence or mergers and acquisitions are brought forward for a shareholder vote. For these meetings, we procure independent voting research from Glass Lewis, which offers insight into shareholder proposals ahead of each meeting. We continue by screening for the materiality of issues in order to focus on on companies whose AGM meetings are expected to cover high-profile topics. Next, we gather input on these companies from the relevant analysts and engagement specialists. We then write a final corporate governance report, which forms the basis for our voting decision, and execute the vote based on our analysis.

6 Enhancing the effectiveness of proxy voting Shareholders should not only think about the content of their voting decisions, but should also be sufficiently able to have their voices heard and actively contribute to a more efficient voting chain. Cristina Cedillo Torres Engagement Analyst Our Governance & Active Ownership team has been voting on behalf of institutional clients since As a shareholder, not only is it important analyze and understand the impact of our voting decision, but also to ensure that we have the means to execute our clients shareholder rights. In our 15 years of activity in this area, we have gained valuable insight into how the voting chain works and play an active role in addressing some of the remaining challenges related to processing proxy votes correctly at the shareholders meetings. Such challenges stem from the complexity of the voting process, which involves a range of different parties the investor, the company, the voting agency, the custodian and lawyers, among others. improve the voting process. Through our work in the vote confirmation working group, we aim to identify problems relating to the transparency and efficiency of the voting chain and encourage the parties involved in the voting chain to provide regular, timely and accurate updates on changes to voting regulations. Our research over the past years indicates that several parties in the chain have developed partial solutions to the identified problems, but so far they have not been implemented throughout the entire chain. Within the working group we make this knowledge readily available and support the implementation of these solutions throughout the chain. The PRI Vote Confirmation Steering Committee, of which RobecoSAM s Governance & Active Ownership team is one of the founding members, plays an active role in bringing the different parties in the chain together to 4 Governance & Active Ownership
