  • SEC Clarifies Investment Advisers’ Proxy Voting Responsibilities And Application Of Proxy Rules To Voting Advice

    Date 21/08/2019

    The Securities and Exchange Commission today provided guidance to assist investment advisers in fulfilling their proxy voting responsibilities.

  • Recession Worries Undercut Commodity Prices, Uncertainty And Fear Of Slowing Aggregate Demand Send Prices Down Again, William May, Senior Economist, IHS Markit

    Date 21/08/2019

    Commodity prices, as measured by the Materials Price Index, fell another 0.9% last week, as growing recession fears again kept physical users on the sidelines and investors seeking safety in less risky asset classes.
