LSEG's newly published Global Shareholder Activism Review confirms Bloomberg's findings from earlier this month. Kingsdale Advisors ranks #1 in Canada and Top 8 globally for company-side proxy solicitation in FY 2025.
These results reaffirm what our clients have long known. Kingsdale builds alignment and confidence between corporate leadership and the investment community, ensuring long-term stability for North American public companies. The rankings reflect our track-record at protecting boards facing governance challenges and contested situations.
This leadership is anchored by a 100% success rate across all mandates in 2025. In a year defined by sophisticated activist campaigns and mounting pressure on boards, we delivered a perfect record of execution. This standard of excellence is why three of the top five companies in The Globe and Mail Board Games rankings for governance excellence are Kingsdale clients. We move beyond transactional service to provide the strategic clarity and precision required when the margin for error is zero.
