A note to our clients: Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) has a proxy vote underway for shareholders of certain funds that requires participation. We encourage you to submit your votes by signing and returning the paper materials mailed to your home, and if you’re unable to do so, a third-party proxy facilitator will reach out to you over the phone beginning in April.

The board members for DFA’s funds (most of whom are not affiliated with DFA) are responsible for protecting your interests as a shareholder and believe that these proposals are in the best interests of shareholders. They recommend that you vote in favor of the proposals.

Visit DFA’s 2015 proxy vote page on their website or view this letter from DFA’s Chairman, David Booth, for more information.
