On January 27 2010 the Italian Legislator has implemented the European Directive2007/36/CE relating to certain rights of shareholders in listed companies (the Shareholders Directive).The new reform appears to be the most efficient in the past few decades afterthe enactment of Testo Unico della finanza of 1998. Especially the reform simplifiesthe mechanism of proxy voting trough the use of modern technologies with the extendto guarantee an increase of shareholders participation to the shareholders meetings.Proxy solicitation, before the new reform, was considered by scholars an obsoleteand inefficient institute so that in Italy until 2011 no solicitation of proxies tookplace. The introduction of the record date institute with the elimination of any referenceto treshold of shares for a proxy solicitation promotion has opened the doorsfor more competitive shareholders meetings.The impact of the new reform in the light of the experience of the first two years appears to be enthusiastic: the institutional investors activism has increased dramatically and the weight of minority shareholders during proxy fights increased consistently.
