Why Sodali?

Why Sodali?
Sodali is recognized as the global leader in corporate governance consulting,
shareholder transactions and institutional investor relations. When a company’s board
and managers are facing demands from investors, looking for their support,
or trying to manage their expectations, they turn to Sodali for advice and services.
Why Sodali? Here are 12 reasons:
1.Sodali is committed to “aligning interests.” Our goal is to prevent problems rather than increase confrontation.
We help companies define issues and deal with shareholders proactively before problems arise.

London, Sao Paulo and Tokyo.
3.Sodali draws upon local expertise to provide customized service in each market we serve, having offices,

4.Sodali works hard to establish the trust of institutional investors and maintain their confidence. Our credibility with
investors gives us access and an edge when clients need their support.
5.Sodali works only for companies, not for dissidents or activists. We are not an opportunistic “gun for hire.”
6.Sodali treats the Annual General Meeting as a definitive corporate governance event, where shareholders can learn
about the company and the company can learn about its owners and the constituencies it serves.
7.Sodali has mastered the mechanics of cross-border share voting. We know who makes the decisions at each
ownership level and we work in tandem with proxy advisors, intermediaries, custodians and their back office
operations.

governance constructively in support of business goals.
