RiskMetrics Policy Gateway

Listening to multiple views on corporate governance issues is critical for effective policy formulation.

RiskMetrics Group endeavors to set the industry standard for transparency in the processes by which we develop and apply our proxy voting policies.

As such, we undertake significant outreach efforts with all market participants as part of the formulation of our proxy voting policies, and welcome dialogue with companies as part of our proxy analysis.
