Shareholder information
Shareholders in AWI are derived from woolgrowers contributing to the Wool Levy. They are able to shape the decision making process of the company via their access to information and right to vote.
AWI shareholders are entitled to one vote for every $100 of wool levy paid in the three financial years before any vote. These shares are not tradeable.
Paying wool levies does not make you an automatic shareholder of Australian Wool Innovation Limited.
