At an annual general meeting (AGM), directors of the company present the company's financial performance and shareholders vote on the issues at hand. Shareholders who do not attend the meeting in person may usually vote by proxy, which can be done online or by mail.
The board chair (president), or vice-chair (vice-president) usually runs the Annual General Meeting. They can make rulings on any issues of procedure that aren't covered in the constitution (or standing orders made under the constitution), which is pretty well all of them.
An AGM (also known as an annual shareholder meeting) is a yearly meeting between shareholders and board members where they gather to: Discuss business matters. Review financial statements. Address resolutions.
Tribunal Intervention: The National Company Law Tribunal has the Authority to order the convening of an Annual General Meeting under Section 97 and Section 98 of the Companies Act, 2013.
AGMs are not just held by companies. For example, universities, schools, charities and unions could all be required to hold an AGM to discuss the future of the organisation or institution in question.
At the annual general meeting, the president or chairman of the organization presides over the meeting and may give an overall status of the organization. The secretary prepares the minutes and may be asked to read important papers. The treasurer may present a financial report.
The chair of a meeting, also known as a chairperson, is the elected officer of an organized group, such as a board or committee. During the meeting, it is a chair's responsibility to prepare the meeting agenda, open the meeting, facilitate discussion and keep the conversation focused and balanced.
All shareholders must be notified of the format, date, time, and place of the meeting. How far in advance notices should be distributed may depend on your state, but generally, they should be sent out more than 10 days prior to the meeting, but less than 60 days.
A General Meeting is simply a meeting of shareholders and 21 days' notice must be given to shareholders, but this can be reduced to 14 days, or increased to 28 days, in certain situations.
