Quick guide to participating in the General Meeting
Why is Iberdrola interested in shareholder participation?
Iberdrola is a company that has never had a controlling shareholder during its hundred-year history. It therefore seeks to promote the continuous engagement of its shareholders, and to do so specifically with respect to the General Meeting, the main channel participation in the company’s corporate life, which is held annually to make the most important decisions.
Who can participate?
All shareholders can participate in the General Meeting directly or through a proxy representative.
- It is only necessary to own one share to participate as a shareholder.
- Any person who has been validly granted a proxy for this General Meeting by a shareholder may participate as a proxy representative.
