Jon Solorzano is joined by Catherine Moyer (Head of Americas Stewardship at Northern Trust), Christine Chow (Special Advisor, Canbury Insights), and Gregory Elders (Director, North America, Canbury Insights). Panelists cover the structural changes in how the SEC handles No-Action requests, escalating debates over the erosion of traditional corporate governance protections, the chilling effect of 13D guidance on institutional engagement, and more.

Key Discussion Focuses

The No-Action Vacuum: How companies and proponents adapted to an SEC sitting on the sidelines, and why it’s shifting disputes to state courts
Governance Fractures: Lessons from high-profile Texas redomiciles, extreme IPO governance structures, and what they mean for long-term shareholder value
The 13D Chill: Navigating the fine line of constructive collaborative engagement under tight activist filing guidance
AI in the Room: How artificial intelligence is reshaping stewardship meetings, engagement outreach, and boardroom oversight
The Horizon: High-stakes implications if shareholders lose core rights to file proposals or vote on pay
