TCW Direct Lending VII Secures Member Support on Key Governance Matters



TCW Direct Lending VII LLC wrapped up its 2025 Annual Meeting of Members on July 17 with clear decisions on two important fronts: board composition and auditor selection. The meeting, held via teleconference and proxy, saw strong turnout and delivered decisive outcomes.



Members voted to re-elect Class III directors Saverio M. Flemma and Richard T. Miller. Each director received over 8.7 million votes in support, with only a handful of votes withheld and no abstentions. Their reappointment secures board continuity through 2028, aligning with the company’s long-term oversight strategy.



The second matter on the agenda focused on the firm’s independent auditor. Members ratified the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP to continue as auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The results were straightforward:




  • Votes For: 8,692,150

  • Votes Against: 0

  • Votes Abstained: 40,000

These outcomes send a clear signal. Members are aligned on key decisions and supportive of the company’s leadership and operational direction. The re-election of board members and reaffirmation of Deloitte as auditor keep governance stable heading into the next fiscal cycle.



Andrew Kim, Chief Financial Officer, signed off on the official record on July 22, closing out the reporting process. With the votes in and actions recorded, TCW Direct Lending VII enters the back half of the year with member-endorsed leadership and a confirmed audit partner—foundational elements for what’s ahead.
