Standard and Poor's Governance Services

Standard & Poor's, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, is a leading provider of independent financial information, risk assessments and opinions to financial decision makers globally. Standard & Poor's Governance Services was established to evaluate the corporate governance standards of individual companies around the world and to help financial decision makers gain from an improved understanding of corporate governance standards.

Using Standard & Poor's corporate governance criteria and methodology, a Corporate Governance Score (CGS) focuses on what a company does, not on the minimum required by local laws and regulations--not just the form of a company's corporate governance but also its substance. A company invites Standard & Poor's to conduct the scoring process; the resulting score and report are based on interactive, independent research and are internationally comparable. Publication of the score is determined by the company assessed. It is a key way in which companies can communicate their corporate governance practices to investors, creditors and other stakeholders.
