About the AGM
The highest authority within GWO is the General Assembly in which all members are represented.
Leading Members have one vote each and shall be represented by representatives with sufficient mandate to represent their companies. Only leading members have voting rights at the General Assembly.
The General Assembly ordinarily meets once per year at the Annual General Meeting. The Annual General Meeting is called by the Chair of the Executive Committee. Any proposals from members shall be forwarded to the Chair or CEO before 15th of February. The Annual General Meeting shall be called with at least three weeks’ written notice to all members.
The General Assembly forms a quorum if at least 50% of the Leading Members are represented, and decisions are taken by simple majority of the present votes unless specified otherwise in the Articles of Association. Leading Members may delegate voting by proxy to representatives of other Leading Members, however no one representative may hold more than 20% of the potential votes of all members.
Potential members, and other individuals may be invited as observers and speakers to the Annual General Meeting at the discretion of the Chair of the Executive Committee or the Chair of the Audit and Compliance Committee.
