ISS Announces QuickScore 3.0: Verify Your Data by November 14th

Broc Romanek, CompensationStandards.com

Last week, ISS announced that QuickScore 3.0 will be launched on November 24th for the 2015 proxy season (in other words, that’s the first date the new governance ratings will be included in research reports). Ning Chiu highlights some of the changes from last year in this blog – also see this Wachtell Lipton memo and Gibson Dunn blog. Here’s the home for QuickScore 3.0, where you can download the technical document – and here’s the new QuickScore factors by region.

Companies will have from November 3rd to November 14th to verify the underlying raw data and submit updates and corrections through ISS’s data review and verification site. As always, ratings are updated based on a company’s public disclosures during the calendar year.
