Wells Fargo & Company 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
Letter to our Shareholders from our Chairman of the Board and our Chief Executive Officer
March 16, 2020
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
Under new leadership, Wells Fargo is moving with a sense of urgency to remediate our historical issues and establish the strong foundation necessary to regain the trust of all stakeholders and position the Company for the future. We are supported by the strength of our franchise, including Wells Fargo's diversified business model, strong distribution across both physical and digital channels, and leading market positions in many areas. Going forward, we recognize it is imperative that we maintain the highest standards of operational excellence and integrity. We have made significant changes to our governance, management, structure, processes, and culture over the past year.
Your Board also has continued to enhance its oversight, including by adding new directors with expertise in areas relevant to our business such as financial services, regulatory matters, and business operations. In addition to overseeing the centralization of Wells Fargo's organizational structure, the strengthening of its risk management program and the development of its strategy, the Board is focused on holding management accountable for implementing our strategy consistent with our risk management framework and executing on our regulatory commitments.
On behalf of Wells Fargo, we would like to thank Betsy Duke and Jim Quigley, who resigned as directors on March 8, 2020, for their contributions to Wells Fargo. We are honored that we have the opportunity to lead this great franchise as we, together with the other directors, management team, and employees, do what is necessary to again make Wells Fargo one of the most respected and successful banks in the country. We have a lot of work ahead, but we are optimistic about our future and confident that Wells Fargo has the ability to realize its potential.
We are pleased to invite you to attend our 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on April 28, 2020, at 10:00 a.m., Mountain Daylight Time, at The Grand America Hotel, 555 South Main Street, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111. The matters to be considered include the election of directors, an advisory vote to approve the 2019 compensation of our named executive officers, the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm for 2020, and up to three shareholder proposals.
Your vote is important to us. Please vote as soon as possible even if you plan to attend the annual meeting. The notice and proxy statement provide you with information about how you can vote your shares over the internet, using your mobile device, by telephone, or by mail. Thank you for your continued investment in and support of Wells Fargo.
