Motions for the 2020 Annual General Meeting (AGM)

The deadline to submit your Motions for the 2020 AGM is 30 April 2020. Motions received after this deadline will not be considered as part of the review process.

What is a Motion?

A Motion is a written proposal, formally submitted to Bankmed for discussion and possible adoption as a recommendation at the 2020 AGM. A Motion must meet all criteria as set out in the Bankmed Scheme Rules.

If you intend to submit a Motion for consideration, you must ensure that your Motion meets all the following criteria:

  1. A Motion may not deal with matters that affect the operation of Bankmed;
  2. A Motion may not deal with matters that fall outside the scope of the AGM;
  3. A Motion must be for the benefit of all members and/or be in the best interest of Bankmed and its members; and
  4. A Motion must be submitted in writing, must be concise, defined, free from ambiguity, and accompanied by a detailed motivation

In the event that a Motion does not meet all the above-mentioned criteria, the Motion may be deemed invalid.

Personal claim queries or benefit queries will be addressed outside of this process. We will have consultants at the AGM venue to address personal claim and benefit queries.

How to submit a Motion?

Valid Motions must be submitted in writing, to the Principal Officer through the channels stipulated below. Motions are required to reach the Principal Officer by 30 April 2020.

Kindly use one of the channels below to submit your Motion:

To avoid the risk of postal delays, where possible, we encourage you to submit your Motion by e-mail, rather than by post.

Kindly do not include any other correspondence or queries with your Motion submission.

Although late Motions cannot be addressed at the AGM, we will gladly address these separately, where applicable. We urge you to submit your Motions on time so that they can be considered at the AGM.

Motions communicated and closed at previous AGMs

We have summarised member requests and questions that do not qualify as Motions over the years and have placed this information in a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document. Kindly review the contents of this FAQs document prior to submitting a Motion as the matter may have been communicated to and closed during a previous AGM. Please do not submit new Motions for matters closed in the FAQs.

Announcement of Trustees election results at the AGM

Kindly note that voting for Trustees’ will be carried out prior to the AGM. This means that voting would have taken place, and the results of the election of Trustees to the Board will be announced at the AGM. We will be communicating separately about the voting process and you will receive communication shortly.

Yours in good health
Bankmed
