Always Summer exercises voting rights attached to holdings solely to benefit the fund and its investors. Our proxy-voting strategy is adopted by the Board and designed in line with the AIFM rules (including the requirements of Article 37 of the EU Commission’s Delegated Regulation). The Board reviews the policy regularly, at least annually.
We monitor corporate events that matter to our investors and vote only on matters relevant to the fund’s objectives and investment mandate. Typical examples include acquisitions and mergers, capital structure changes, incentive programmes, board composition and share buy-backs.
Decisions on whether to exercise the fund’s vote are taken with care and documented. The Board decides on voting where appropriate; if an urgent decision is needed and the Board cannot convene, the CEO may decide and will notify the Board without delay. Our managers act within the framework of law, fund rules, risk controls and investment guidelines.
We prevent and manage conflicts of interest so that the fund’s interests always come first. If measures cannot remove the risk of an adverse effect on investors, we will disclose the nature and source of the conflict before acting. All analyses, decisions and evaluations of voting outcomes are documented and retained.

We will publish a annual record of the actions we have taken, including voting activity and related disclosures, on this page. The first report will be published in 2027.
