Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Templeton Emerging Markets Income Fund (TEI) 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 TEI 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 TEI filings page.
Templeton Emerging Markets Income Fund is asking shareholders to vote at its May 21, 2026 annual meeting on two items: electing four incumbent Independent Trustees and ratifying PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) as auditor for the year ending December 31, 2026.
The trustee slate is Harris J. Ashton, Edith E. Holiday (Lead Independent Trustee), J. Michael Luttig and Constantine D. Tseretopoulos, each for a three‑year term through the 2029 meeting. The Board’s Nominating Committee, composed entirely of Independent Trustees, oversees board composition and candidate selection, including shareholder‑recommended nominees meeting specific ownership and disclosure requirements.
The proxy details governance practices, including board risk oversight, control share provisions under Delaware law, and extensive committee structure. It also discloses audit and tax fees paid to PwC and outlines Audit Committee pre‑approval and independence oversight. As of March 9, 2026, 47,228,418 shares were outstanding, with First Trust Portfolios LP and Evergreen Capital Management LLC reported as significant holders.
