ISS to Hold Second Share Lending Webcast April 17
Submitted by: Sarah Cohn, Director of Communications

ISS will hold a special second Governance Forum webcast, Share Lending Practices and Share Recall Challenges, on Tuesday, April 17 at 11 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time.

Due to overwhelming demand for more information on the topic of securities lending, ISS is offering webcast participants the opportunity to engage directly with panelists Chris Kunkle, Vice President of JP Morgan Chase; Ed Blount, Founder and Executive Director of Astec Consulting Group; Henry Hu, University of Texas Law School; and W. Tredick McIntire of Goldman Sachs and Chair of the Risk Management Association's Committee on Securities Lending. Diana Bourke, ISS' Executive Vice President of Global Voting and Transaction Services, will moderate the discussion.

Panelists will share their views on proxy voting and securities lending, including: existing regulations and law, institutional investor best practices, and challenges related to foreign markets. Additionally, panelists will discuss what steps the industry is taking to support securities lending best practices.
