For fund managers
Powerful voting technology to offer your clients
Using Tumelo ProxySphere, build closer relationships with your clients by empowering them to vote in line with their unique investment strategy.
Why offer voting to clients?
Pass-through or "customised" voting empowers your clients to align voting across their portfolio. Additionally, by providing customised voting policies, asset managers can retain clients and attract greater asset allocations across multiple strategies. This unique collaboration transforms stewardship into a value driver.
Offer a more flexible product
where investors can choose their voting independently of their allocations.
Save time and money
by letting investors vote in a pooled fund without needing a segregated mandate.
Enable your investors to align their voting
across their whole portfolio.
Meet upcoming regulation
from the DWP, UK Stewardship code, PLSA or INDEX act efficiently. Enable your investors to align their voting across their whole portfolio.

Benefits for fund managers
Why choose Tumelo ProxySphere?
Our pass-through voting product offers significant value to everyone involved in the voting process. Here is how it's designed to benefit you as an asset manager. (To see the product features developed to engage your client, visit the product page.)
No votes go un-voted
The fund manager votes on 100% of their vote capital. ProxySphere splits the vote only where underlying investors have cast contrarian votes. If an investor doesn’t vote, their vote capital remains with the fund manager.
No changes to voting processes
You do not need to change your current voting process. The ProxySphere system tabulates votes of investors and updates the fund manager’s vote directly at the proxy intermediary
Retail & institutional coverage
ProxySphere supports both institutional and retail investors, so you can Treat Customers Fairly (TCF) with one solution.
Voting-policy agnostic
Tumelo works with any proxy advisor, so your clients can keep pre-existing policies.
Diversification of suppliers
Tumelo specialises in voting, which means fund managers retain their other suppliers, continuing as normal but adopting Tumelo as their PTV supplier, thus reducing supplier risk.
Simple, transparent per-fund pricing model
Tumelo doesn't have a complex charging structure with hidden fees. We charge a simple, clear fee for each fund that accepts PTV, reducing the fee with scale.
