How asset managers voted at the WINTRUST FINANCIAL CORP. 2023-2024 meeting

Each item below shows how the 419 asset managers that disclosed a WINTRUST FINANCIAL CORP. vote in their SEC Form N-PX filings actually voted. Share totals are the shares those managers' funds voted, summed across every fund they report. These are reported items, not a count of the ballot: fund filings describe one ballot item in different words. Two descriptions are shown as one item only on evidence — the same text (or one cut short of the other), the same director nominee, or a match to the same row of WINTRUST FINANCIAL CORP.’s own Form 8-K tally — never because they merely read alike. A description that could not be joined that way is listed on its own, so one ballot item can appear more than once.

1. Proposal to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the Company's executive compensation as described in the 2024 Proxy Statement.

About this page

Every figure above is derived from filings made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission: Form N-PX, in which registered investment companies and institutional managers disclose how they voted every proxy, and Form 8-K Item 5.07, in which the company reports its own meeting results. Shares outstanding are taken from WINTRUST FINANCIAL CORP.’s 10-K dated 2023-12-31. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 04 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At WINTRUST FINANCIAL CORP.'s shareholder meeting held 2024-05-23, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 419 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 8,069 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 18 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Proposal to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the Company's executive compensation… — FOR was 98% of the votes cast (FOR divided by FOR plus AGAINST, the conventional basis for proxy support; abstentions, broker non-votes and unvoted shares are excluded because none of them took a side), which is more than half. Whether the item was approved is for the filing to say; that statement has not been read for this item. Source: WINTRUST FINANCIAL CORP.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (filing date not recorded for this item).
