Thank you @dangallagher & @RoelCCampos for weighing in on proxy reform at @BPC_Bipartisan this morning. IPFI supports the SEC’s actions in limiting the power of proxy advisory firms
The @SEC_News recently provided guidance for proxy advisory firms. So we dug into that guidance, the history of SEC proxy firm regulations, and what it means for #publicpensions. Check it out! ipfiusa.org/2019/09/19/refor…
Chris answering a question from the crowd: we do have to reign in #proxyadvisory firms and clarify their role. The @SEC_News should be taking action on these firms soon.
At the Bradley Forum on #esg investing during the @ALEC_states annual meeting: Christopher Burnham introduces #IPFI and our stance on ESG
Happy 4th of July! Celebrate America and all the hardworking public servants who dedicated their lives to state, local, and federal governments! #securepensions
On ESG investiv from Wayne: As you look at these issues, which we have a paper coming out soon (look for it next week), there’s concerns that ESG funds are underperforming. @WayneWinegarden @PacificResearch
On #proxyadvisors from Jeff- they have conflicts of interests and other issues, but those who use their services seem happy. If there are major problems then the ones spending money should raise them.
Welcome to our panelists- Jason Perez from @CalPERS, Jeff Mahoney from @CouncilInstInv, and @WayneWinegarden from @PacificResearch!
Excited to have @RepSeanDuffy here to discuss #proxyadvisory firms

Great afternoon at @PepPublicPolicy! Thanks @Pete4CA and the whole team for a fantastic #pensionpanel
