Unlocking the Power of AGMs: Insider Tips for Smarter Shareholders
Ever wondered what really happens at an Annual General Meeting (AGM) and why it matters for your investments?
In this episode, Steve Mabb, Chair of the Australian Shareholders Association and Teaminvest member, unpacks how AGMs are more than a formality — they’re a window into management quality, governance, and alignment with shareholders. He explains how value investors can use AGMs to ask better questions, read between the lines, and identify early warning signs that don’t always show up in financial statements.
Hear real stories of shareholder wins and disasters, learn how to spot red flags, and discover why in-person engagement is still king. This discussion shows why active shareholder engagement matters — and how AGMs can help investors protect capital and make more informed long-term decisions.
What you’ll learn:
- Why AGMs matter for long-term investors
- How to assess boards and management beyond the numbers
- The most effective questions to ask at AGMs

- What the two-strike rule tells investors about accountability
