Reuters2026/08/07 21:30- Angel Oak Financial Strategies Income Term Trust faces a shareholder activism fight ahead of its Sept. 25, 2026 annual meeting.
- Activist Trevor Montano filed a preliminary proxy statement to solicit votes for his board bid and a proposal to terminate the investment advisory agreement.
- The fund plans to disregard Montano’s nomination and proposal, citing noncompliance with its advance-notice bylaws.
- SEC Division of Investment Management did not object to omitting Montano’s Rule 14a-8 proposal, backing the fund’s personal-grievance exclusion rationale.
- The board urged shareholders to vote only its white proxy card, warning against signing or returning Montano materials.
