Additional information.[Optional]
In Finland we use mainly our own research and make voting decisions without the use of service providers. Outside of Finland we use our service provider to provide us broad information about the company history of each ballot item and information regarding e.g. specific sector or country. We use this information combined with our own experience and knowledge to form our decision for voting activity which complies with our voting policy.
