Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Franklin Premier Income Trust (PPT) in our archive over the last 12 months, newest first, and each one links through to the document itself with the summary and the scores our analysis gives it.
A DEF 14A covers the proxy statement, with executive pay and the shareholder votes, so if you follow PPT and want that one kind of document rather than the whole filing history, this is the page to keep. The company's other filings, of every form, are on the full PPT filings page.
Putnam closed-end funds filed an amendment to the proxy statement clarifying proxy cards for the 2026 annual meetings. Shareholders are asked to fix the number of Trustees at 8 and to elect eight Trustee nominees, with the Board unanimously recommending FOR both proposals. The meetings are scheduled for April 17, 2026 in New York; the record date for voting is February 6, 2026. Proxy materials are available online and shareholders may vote by internet, telephone, mail, or in person. The filing discloses each nominee’s background, Trustee compensation for 2025, audit fees by PwC, net assets by fund as of December 31, 2025, shares outstanding as of February 6, 2026, and large-shareholder tables showing CEDE & Company as the principal record holder for each fund.
