* Since the 30th annual meeting scheduled for March 2020 has been cancelled, the financial results for 2019 and 2020 will be presented at this meeting.

The  Desjardins Group Retirement Committee (DGRC) made up of members appointed by the board of directors of the Fédération des caisses Desjardins du Québec, including one member from outside Desjardins Group, and members elected by the members of specific groups.

Two positions are open on the DGRC:

Position n° 2: Member designated by active members. This is a new position on the DGRC. All active DGPP members will be able to vote to appoint a member at this position.

These open positions have three-year terms, which will end with the annual meeting in 2024.

To find out about the role and responsibilities of the DGRC as well as the skills sought among members of the DGRC, we invite you to consult the Desjardins Group Retirement Committee section.

If only one person is nominated, that person will be elected automatically.

If more than one person applies for one of these positions, participants from the groups specified will be asked to vote online from February 22 to March 4, 2021, until 11:59 p.m. via this website.

Candidate cover letters and resumés will be available here, a few days prior to the start of the voting period.

A simple majority is required, meaning that the candidate with the most votes will be elected. In the event of a tie, the winner will be selected by random draw at the annual meeting.

Election results will be announced at the annual meeting.

People interested in sitting on the DGRC are invited to apply no later than 4:00 p.m. on February 5, 2021. To do so, candidates must complete the nomination form as well as the other forms required and send all requested documents to the DGRC, by email at rrmd.instances@desjardins.com. 

In order to present the candidates, the cover letters and resumes will be posted for consultation on the website a few days before the voting period.
