The Government has requested the Corporations and Markets Advisory Committee (CAMAC) to look at how the AGM may operate into the future and how it might better deliver opportunities for shareholder engagement.

The terms of reference are:

• The future of the AGM in Australia, including how documents and meeting forms should change to meet the needs of shareholders in the future
• The risks and opportunities presented by advancements in technology, in the context of maintaining the ongoing relevance and efficacy of the AGM; and
• The challenges posed to the structure of the AGM by globalisation, including potential increases in international share-ownership and dual-listing.
