Shareholder Rights Directive II Disclosure
Zukuri Capital Limited (the “Firm”) is dedicated to maintaining transparency and high standards of corporate governance. However, as a small firm with limited resources, we have determined that certain requirements of the Shareholder Rights Directive II (SRD II) are not applicable to our operations for the following reasons:
1. Engagement Policy:
o Reason for Non-Compliance: The firm primarily focuses on fixed income and equity markets and our investment strategy does not involve active engagement with the companies in which we invest. The scale of our operations does not support the extensive engagement activities required by SRD II.
o Alternative Measures: We ensure transparency and alignment with our clients’ interests through regular reporting and adherence to responsible investment principles.
2. Voting Behaviour Disclosure:
o Reason for Non-Compliance: Given our small size and the nature of our investments, we do not have the capacity to participate in voting at general meetings of the companies in our portfolio.
o Alternative Measures: We provide detailed information on our investment strategies and performance, ensuring that our clients are fully informed about their investments.
3. Use of Proxy Advisors:
o Reason for Non-Compliance: As we do not engage in voting activities, we do not utilize the services of proxy advisors.
o Alternative Measures: Our focus remains on delivering accurate and timely information about our investment strategies and ensuring that our clients have access to comprehensive data on their investments.
Conclusion: The Firm remains committed to transparency and accountability. While certain aspects of SRD II are not applicable to our operations, we continue to uphold the highest standards of governance and client communication.
