Customizable & User-Friendly AGM Management

As businesses and organizations continue to evolve, the need for efficient and secure management of Annual General Meetings (AGMs) becomes more crucial. Globibo’s AGM platform is designed to deliver a customizable and user-friendly experience, providing both administrators and shareholders with the tools they need to ensure smooth operations before, during, and after the meeting. With robust features such as role-based access control (RBAC), real-time monitoring, and integrated workflows, Globibo enables seamless user management while maintaining flexibility for compliance and governance.

1. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Efficient User Management and Permissions

One of the standout features of our virtual AGM platform is its role-based access control (RBAC), which provides granular control over the platform’s functionalities. By assigning different access levels to various users, the platform ensures that each participant can only access the features relevant to their role, enhancing security and streamlining management tasks.

Full Control for Administrators

Admins have complete control over the platform, allowing them to:

Create and manage all user roles: Administrators can customize roles and permissions, assigning specific access levels to internal team members, panelists, auditors, and shareholders.
System-wide configurations: Admins can adjust settings, integrate with external systems like CDS/eConnect, and ensure data integrity by managing data flow and user access.

This role-based structure ensures that each participant only sees and interacts with the information that pertains to their role, preventing unauthorized access and enhancing data security.

Issuer Profile Management

The platform offers a centralized control for issuer profiles, allowing administrators to:

Create and customize meetings: Schedule and set up meetings, including the ability to upload important documents like notices and financial statements.
Manage shareholder data: Admins can easily maintain accurate and up-to-date shareholder information, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

These capabilities provide issuers with a convenient and streamlined method for handling all the essential tasks involved in managing an AGM, from document uploads to data management.

Proxy and Meeting Logistics Management

Admins can also oversee all logistical aspects of the AGM, such as:

Managing attendance: Real-time monitoring of meeting participation allows admins to track attendees, whether they are attending virtually, in person, or via proxy.
Coordinating proxy assignments: The platform makes it easy to assign, manage, and track proxy votes, ensuring accuracy in shareholder participation.

The system allows administrators to engage in efficient meeting management while ensuring compliance with voting rules and regulations.

2. Shareholder Access: Convenient, Secure, and Engaging Features

Globibo’s AGM platform offers a host of features designed to provide a seamless and user-friendly experience for shareholders. Whether shareholders are participating virtually or in person, the platform ensures secure access to all the necessary tools for active participation.

Access Meeting Details

Shareholders can quickly access essential meeting information, such as:

Agendas: View the meeting’s agenda to stay informed about the topics to be discussed.
Schedules: Check the time and date of the AGM, ensuring they are well-prepared.
Meeting-specific information: Receive any updates or notices related to the meeting for complete transparency.

Document Viewing

Shareholders can securely access and view important documents, such as:

Notices: Stay up-to-date with official meeting notices.
Proxy forms: Access proxy forms to designate a representative to vote on their behalf.
Financial statements: Review financial reports and other essential meeting documents.

This secure access to documents is vital for keeping shareholders informed, while also ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive data.

Real-Time and Pre-Meeting Voting

Shareholders can participate in voting in a variety of ways, including:

Real-time voting: Engage in live voting during the AGM, allowing shareholders to cast their votes on specific agenda items.
Pre-meeting voting: Vote in advance of the meeting, which is particularly useful for shareholders unable to attend in person or virtually.
Weighted and Proxy Voting: Shareholders can also vote according to their share weight or delegate their votes to a proxy, ensuring their participation in decision-making.

This flexibility provides shareholders with multiple options for engaging in the voting process, regardless of their availability during the meeting.

Virtual Participation

The platform also supports full virtual participation, allowing shareholders to:

Join live streams of the AGM, ensuring they do not miss out on any part of the meeting.
Access Q&A features: Engage with panelists and other attendees by submitting questions or comments during the meeting.
Participate in polls: Respond to surveys or polls conducted during the AGM for further shareholder engagement.

This integrated virtual meeting interface ensures that all shareholders, regardless of location, can participate fully and interact with the meeting’s content.

3. Dual Authorization for Critical Operations: Enhanced Security and Compliance

Globibo’s AGM platform supports dual authorization for critical operations, ensuring that sensitive actions are only executed after approval from authorized personnel. This feature enhances security and compliance, as it guarantees that important actions are subject to oversight.

Critical Actions Requiring Dual Authorization

Certain operations, such as document approvals, voting rule changes, or shareholder list modifications, require approval from two or more predefined roles. For example:

CDS Administrator and Issuer Administrator may be required to approve sensitive actions before they are executed.

This system ensures that checks and balances are in place, preventing unauthorized or accidental changes to critical aspects of the meeting process.

Configurable Workflows

Globibo’s platform allows for easy workflow configuration, enabling administrators to customize which operations require dual authorization and which roles are authorized to approve them. This flexibility ensures the platform can be tailored to meet your organization’s compliance and security needs.

4. Immutable Audit Logs: Full Transparency and Regulatory Compliance

To maintain transparency and meet regulatory compliance requirements, Globibo’s AGM platform keeps detailed, timestamped audit logs of all user activities. These logs track a wide range of actions, including:

Logins: Every time a user logs into the platform, it is recorded for security and accountability purposes.
Data changes: Modifications to meeting details, shareholder information, or other important data are tracked and logged.
Document uploads: The platform logs when documents are uploaded, ensuring that there is a clear history of document availability for audit purposes.

Immutable Logs

The audit logs are immutable, meaning they cannot be altered once generated, preserving their integrity. These logs provide an unforgeable record of all activities, which is critical for forensic analysis, internal reviews, or regulatory compliance reporting.

Exportable Logs for Compliance

For organizations subject to compliance audits or regulatory scrutiny, Globibo’s platform allows users to export audit logs for detailed analysis. These logs can be shared with auditors or regulatory bodies to demonstrate the platform’s compliance with industry standards and legal requirements.

5. Customization and User-Friendliness: Tailored for Your Organization’s Needs

Globibo’s AGM platform is not only powerful and feature-rich but also highly customizable. Administrators have the ability to:

Configure system settings to match your organization’s specific needs.
Customize meeting templates to align with your branding and presentation preferences.
Create and manage user roles to provide tailored access and ensure proper workflow management.

The platform’s user-friendly interface ensures that both admins and shareholders can easily navigate and utilize its features, improving overall engagement and participation in AGMs.
