SWIB owns stock in more than 6,000 public companies across the globe at any given moment. As a shareholder, SWIB is focused on the long-term economic interests of the companies it invests in. In addition to a company's economic health, solid products, a strong customer base, and a growing market share, SWIB is also concerned about accountability, transparency, and alignment, hallmarks of a company that is doing things the right way. Broadly, corporate governance refers to a company's processes and structures that are aimed at ensuring this type of effective oversight. SWIB's corporate governance program utilizes various methods to evaluate and influence companies along these dimensions in order to improve long term shareholder value.
In this episode of the SWIB podcast, we take a look at SWIB's corporate governance program, including the policies used to analyze its domestic and international proxy votes, and how those policies benefit the Wisconsin Retirement System.
