The Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is considered to be a boring and mandatory annual ceremony. At present, its information, forum, decision-making functions, and voting procedures are all flawed. As a new technology, the introduction of blockchain can greatly reduce the cost of shareholder voting and company organization costs, improve the company’s decision-making efficiency and the transparency of voting and elections, and effectively solve the problems existing in the current annual general meeting of shareholders. The research in this paper provides an intelligent solution for the traditional inefficiency of corporate governance.

In his Presidential Address at the 52nd Annual General Meeting of the Institute, held in London on 21 October 1998, Air Commodore Pinky Grocott gave an analysis of the causal factors that resulted in the loss of 913 large sailing ships during the period of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic eras (1793–1815). Navigation and weather factors predominated, often aggravated by poor and untimely decision-making. Many of the lessons learnt are equally relevant today.

This paper reports from a field-level study of 67 annual general meetings conducted between 2004 and2008. The focus is on private shareholders and the questions they pose to company representatives at the annual general meetings. By comparing these results with earlier research, the study concludes that this group of investors asks questions mostly about the company’s operations followed by questions concerning the income statement and corporate governance. The latter finding is not consistent with earlier studies showing a low interest in financial accounting and corporate governance. One plausible explanation to account for the current finding is that the annual general meeting enables shareholders to be active in their roles as shareholders

Prof. Syed Nawab Haider Naqvi, Dr M. Ghaffar Chaudhry, Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is a privilege for me to inaugurate the Fourth Annual General Meeting of the Pakistan Society of Development Economists. I am pleased to note that within only five years of its existence the Society has evolved into a prestigious forum for a free and precious exchange of ideas among economists and policy-makers. I am told that through these annual general meetings 74 papers on various topics have been prepared and published, and that, in its Lecture Series on Development Economics, eminent international economists and demographers have read papers on leading issues in economics and demography. The literature created under the aegis of the Society furnishes useful insights into the functioning of the economy and has contributed to the comprehension of the problems of almost all areas of Pakistan's economy - agriculture, industry, trade, resource mobilization, etc. I am happy to note that the Society has helped to promote a scientific and pragmatic approach in policy-formulation and economic decision-making, and has enabled us to think systematically about the nature of the challenges posed and faced by Pakistan's economic development and about the response to this challenge.
