He reviews the relevant documentation regarding CBT’s AGM and notes the following:
− One of the resolutions to be voted at the AGM was put forward by a minority shareholder. The investor asks the company to produce a report on how climate change may affect the company’s strategy and financial stability in the long-term.

选项:

C.The company's response on whether it supports the resolution and why.
D.Whether this resolution falls under the category of governance.
解释:
在年度股东大会上表决的一项决议是由一名小股东提出的。投资者要求公司出具一份报告,说明气候变化在长期内可能如何影响公司的战略和财务稳定。
A选项,公司及其商业模式受气候变化风险影响的程度;
B选项,公司在多大程度上已经提供了关于气候变化风险主题的信息;
C选项,该公司对是否支持该决议及其原因的回应。
这三个选项的涉及的问题对公司都有重大的影响,相比之下,D选项关于决议的归类问题并非关键问题。因此在决定是否对股东决议投票时,帕特里克最不可能考虑的是D选项。
D选项表示了公司对于climate risk的治理态度,为什么不需要考虑呢?
