In this section, you will find the proxy voting records for
the RBC Funds which hold voting securities. A new Proxy Voting
Search function allows you to see the proxy voting record of the
Fund you choose, for the period from July 1, 2005 to June 30, 2008.
How to Use the Proxy Voting Search
Use Fund Search to select an RBC Fund. Click Search and you will
see a list of companies held by the selected Fund and the meetings at
which the Fund exercised its voting rights. Click on a Company name
to see the issues on which shareholders voted at the meeting and how
the Fund voted.
Use Company Search to check for a particular company, using the alphabetical
listing, the company name or the company's ticker symbol. The ticker is the
symbol under which that specific security is listed on a stock exchange.
Use Meeting Date Search to see the proxy voting records of all of the RBC
Funds which held voting securities, for meetings held during a specified period.
The full period included in the proxy voting record is the year from July 1, 2005
to June 30, 2008.
Funds of Funds
Some RBC Funds, including the RBC Select Portfolios, the RBC Select
Choices Portfolios, RBC Managed Payout Solution, RBC Managed Payout
Solution-Enhanced and the RBC Target Education Funds, hold units of
other mutual funds (the “underlying funds”).
Unlike companies, mutual funds do not have annual shareholder
meetings, but they may hold unitholder meetings from time to time,
at which unitholders of the fund are entitled to exercise voting
rights.
If one of the RBC Funds holds units of an underlying fund and
is entitled to vote at a unitholder meeting, RBC Asset Management
will exercise those voting rights in the best interests of the
Fund. The manner in which the voting rights were exercised will
be published on this page.
