What You Need to Know: Methodology Changes for ISS’ Governance Risk Indicators (GRId)

Please join ISS on Feb. 14 at 1:00 pm EST for a Governance Exchange webinar led by Gary Hewitt, Executive Director and Subodh Mishra, Head of Governance Exchange. The webinar will review GRId 2.0, which is scheduled to launch on Feb. 24. GRId is meant to help investors better assess the level of governance-related risk at Russell 3,000 companies across four key areas: audit, board, compensation, and shareholder rights. GRId 2.0 expands on the original version of the ratings system to provide for an updated methodology more closely linked to ISS’ benchmark voting policy. Learn about the changes, and how they may affect portfolio companies, by attending this overview, which will run from 1:00 to 1:30 pm EST, followed by a brief Q&A period.
