Corporate Governance Excellence Program

Governance, finally, as a number.

Every company reports revenue, margin and credit rating. None reports how well it's governed — until now. The Governance Score™ turns board conduct, compliance and financial stewardship into one evidence-backed number, on a 300–900 scale.

The Gap

Governance is real, but it isn't measurable — yet.

Board quality, regulatory conduct, financial stewardship and disclosure discipline all sit scattered across annual reports, filings and committee minutes. A stakeholder has to read hundreds of pages just to answer one question.

How well governed is this company?
The Concept

One score. Built the way credit scores are built.

The Governance Score™ is a standardized, evidence-based measure of governance quality — instantly readable by a board, investor, lender, customer or partner, without reading the underlying filings.

Methodology, at a glance

Evidence in, score out.

The Governance Score is never a single AI opinion. It's produced by ComplianceHQ's proprietary pipeline, combining rules-based checks, AI investigation and evidence validation before anything reaches the score.

STAGE 1

Gather the evidence

Annual reports, exchange filings, regulatory disclosures and public information are collected and structured.

STAGE 2

Investigate with AI

Specialized AI agents cross-reference directors, transactions, disclosures and events for patterns worth a closer look.

STAGE 3

Validate every finding

Each finding is checked against its source before it's allowed to influence the score — no unverified claims.

STAGE 4

Score, rate, report

You receive a Governance Score, rating, outlook and a full evidence-backed assessment report.
