01—Abstract
Summary
Summary of the 6-K filed November 1, 2024. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
This is a Form 6-K, not an 8-K as the request describes.
Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (a foreign private issuer that files under Form 40-F) furnished it on November 1, 2024. The filing is administrative. Its only attachment, Exhibit 99.1, is a confirmation letter from TSX Trust Company stating that a Notice of Record and Meeting Dates was sent to The Canadian Depository for Securities.
The letter sets a Special Meeting of Security Holders for December 20, 2024. The record date for both notice and voting, and the beneficial ownership determination date, is November 12, 2024. Holders of Class A Limited Voting and Class B Limited Voting shares are entitled to receive notice of the meeting and to vote.
The filing does not describe the business to be voted on beyond the word "Special," so the meeting's purpose must be found in separate proxy materials. For investors, the practical points are the record date, which determines who can vote, and the meeting date.
The filing contains no financial results, operating updates, or material transactions. The letter also states that notice-and-access is not used and that the issuer will pay for delivery of proxy materials to objecting beneficial owners.
