Representatives of wealth-manager Arjuna Capital presented their resolution this morning at Bank of America’s annual meeting in Charlotte, and yesterday at Wells Fargo’s annual meeting in Dallas. The resolutions call on investors to vote in favor of the bank producing a detailed report disclosing the “median” or company-wide pay gap that exists between women and men across race and ethnicity. 26 percent of Bank of America and 23 percent of Wells Fargo shareholders agreed and voted “yes” on ballot items #5 and #6, respectively, up from 15% in 2017 when pay equity was first put on the ballot of the firms.
