The Advisors' Blog

A few of our members have informed us that the Glass Lewis window for peer group submissions is open – through August 8th – for companies with annual meetings between October 2025 and February 2026. Glass Lewis shares the info by email to the designated company contact, rather than making a public announcement like ISS.

As this Compensia memo explains – and as I blogged last year – not every company needs to submit something during this window. You really only do it if your peer group has changed since your last proxy statement and you want to make sure the proxy advisor considers that.

See Meredith’s blogs from a few weeks ago about why peer groups might change from year to year – and potential changes to Glass Lewis’s methodology. A lot of people are happy that the new methodology will move away from letter grades!
