PROXY Governance, Inc.
 
 
Profile: 

PROXY Governance, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of FOLIOfn, Inc., is a unique and independent new proxy advisory and voting company that fills a critical need in today’s marketplace - the need for objective advice that supports the goal of building long-term shareholder value.
PROXY Governance provides research and proxy voting recommendations on U.S. and non-U.S. publicly reporting companies. Coverage is based on securities held in client portfolios. For non–U.S. companies, research and recommendations may be provided through partnerships with other leading proxy advisory firms, or directly by PROXY Governance when proxy materials are reasonably available in a timely manner.
History: 

PROXY Governance, Inc., is a wholly-owned subsidiary of FOLIOfn, an innovative financial services technology provider founded in 1998. FOLIOfn’s mission is to provide leading edge innovations in financial services designed to enable better ways to invest.
A proxy advisory and voting service was part of the company’s original business plan, and FOLIOfn started to build the service in 1999 and 2000. FOLIOfn believed then that attention paid to corporate governance in public corporations could provide significant benefits to investors and that an innovative service, dedicated to a superior and more thoughtful proxy analysis, would allow investors to invest better. However, the service was put on hold because of the steep market downturn following 9/11.
In 2003, encouraged by a developing regulatory environment that would expand the market for proxy advisory and voting services, FOLIOfn reinitiated develpmental work for PROXY Governance, which was completed in 2004.
The Business Roundtable became the first subscriber to PROXY Governance’s services, purchasing a bulk subscription on behalf of its member companies for the 2005 proxy season. Since then, although the bulk subscription was for one-year only, PROXY Governance has expanded its individual client list to include more than 100 money managers, advisory firms and financial institutions. The firm has also extended its coverage to any market in the world, partly through partnerships with Japan PROXY Governance and UK-based Manifest Information Services Ltd.
