Of the 514 vote records in this filing, 514 carry something the form does not expect: a missing vote source or category, a record with no vote line, a meeting date that cannot be read, or a security identifier this site could not use. They are counted as filed. What is checked

Say-on-pay votes against management

Counting one say-on-pay item per company meeting, Capital World Investors voted against management on 86 of the 467 it marked either way (18.4%) in the year to 30 June 2026. The 40 companies with the most reporting filers are listed.

Shareholder proposals it supported

Institutional managers report say-on-pay votes only, so no shareholder proposals appear here.

Shares on loan

Capital World Investors reported 25.4 million shares on loan at record dates against 4.65 billion shares voted: 0.54% of the two together. Median institutional manager: 0.00%. Shares lent out at the record date cannot be voted by the lender, which is why Form N-PX asks for the figure. More on lending and votes.
