One of Connecticut’s largest banks is turning its annual shareholder meeting entirely virtual.

People’s United Bank announced Tuesday that the location of the previously scheduled May 21 meeting will now be held remotely “due to federal, state, and local government protocols in place concerning the coronavirus (COVID-19), and to support the health and well-being of our shareholders, employees, board and management,” a statement from the bank’s parent company, Peoples United Financial Inc., said.

Shareholders who wish to attend the virtual meeting live may visit virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PBCT2020 and enter their control number found on their previously distributed proxy card, notice, voting instruction form or proxy materials. Once admitted to the virtual meeting, shareholders may attend the presentation, vote and submit questions during the meeting. Broadridge Financial will host the virtual meeting and tabulate votes.
