Can I use proxy voting to take part in voluntary corporate actions?

Updated today

No. Proxy voting may include approving a voluntary corporate action (VCA), but you cannot take it up directly through Freetrade.
​

This means that if Freetrade cannot support a particular voluntary corporate action, you may not be able to participate in benefits - like cash payments, additional shares, or special offers - that you might otherwise receive.

Important Information
​

When you invest, your capital is at risk. The value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invest.
​

Freetrade does not give investment advice and you are responsible for making your own investment decisions. If you are unsure about what is right for you, you should seek independent advice.
