Proxy project launch: N-PX Vision
I now have 6 volunteers lined up to assist in cracking the N-PX code. It's time to launch the project to make the mutual fund industry more accountable to the public for how it votes on shareholder resolutions. The main challenge is the current format of the N-PX forms that fund companies are required to file by the SEC.
