Proxy Voting

Calvert actively exercises proxy voting seeking to advance the environmental, social, and governance practices of companies held in our investment portfolios. We take this responsibility very seriously and are transparent about how and what we vote.

Shareholders of a corporation not only have the right to participate in the financial growth and success of their corporation, they also have the right to vote on important matters concerning the company's policies, practices and governance.

Calvert believes that proxy voting is the most direct means by which investors can influence corporate behavior. Calvert casts votes on a company's shareholder resolutions based on its proxy voting guidelines.

We believe all of our clients have a right to know how we are voting company proxies on their behalf; therefore, recent proxy voting decisions for each of the funds we manage are disclosed. Proxy voting guidelines and reporting for other advisory clients will be governed by the terms of the respective advisory agreement.
