The Corporate Library's Research Services practice offers expert ESG research services to corporate governance stakeholder organizations.  Our Research Services practice serves a variety of clients, including institutional investors, law firms, consultants, accounting firms, insurance firms, government and industry organizations and associations, as well as academic researchers and universities. To retain our independence and objectivity, we do not provide rating or corporate governance improvement related consulting or advisory services  to any publicly traded corporation that are currently rated by The Corporate Library. Sample our thought leadership here.

Our practice develops solutions by strategically combining our resources in a way that best suits the needs of your organization. Our research team expertly and efficiently distills the vast amount of corporate governance information captured in our Board Analyst® database — information on corporate boards, individual directors, executive and director compensation, corporate ownership, insider trading, related party transactions, takeover defenses, shareholder proposals, securities class action filings and litigation, regulatory actions, and merger and acquisition activity. With the help of our advanced Governance Information Screening Tool® (GIST), we can quickly and easily develop a custom-weighted model analysis of client-specified or supplied data.

• Company, Industry or Regional specific ESG research
