Security Services for Shareholders Meetings
The Annual General Meeting (A.G.M.) is an important and often critical event each year for every company. The AGM is attended by shareholders, major investors, senior management the board of directors, often-potential investors and government officials. These meetings are an important representation of both the image and the state of the company.
Security is crucial at such events and the need for confidence in a security firm, which can exceed expectations, is critical. Professional, discrete and well-planned security can often be the deciding factor between a successful AGM and one with disruptions.
Managing AGM’s has been a focus for PIPM since its inception. Having overseen hundreds of shareholder meetings, PIPM has the experience required to manage the security for this critical forum.
We have experienced problems previously such as:
– Unruly behaviour/person required to leave the microphone
– Swearing, bad/foul language, threatening
– Attempted assault on the principal (CEO)
– Venue may need to be cleared due to emergencies such as fire alarm, Power failure, bomb threats etc.
Additionally when arriving and/or leaving the venue, Executives are potentially at risk from unwanted attention from any one of the following groups:
– Disgruntled employees
– Terminated employees
– Disgruntled shareholders
– Union concerns
– Publicity seekers
– General troublemakers
– Media
Our Personal Protection Specialists facilitate the smooth running of the meeting, ensuring that it is maintained free form external forces.
The PIPM team maintains an unobtrusive presence while maintaining the ability to react swiftly and discretely with the utmost diplomacy to any given situation.
