BoardEx provides daily updated information on quoted company boards through online search and analysis facilities. BoardEx covers over 1.5 million board level directors and senior level managers of over 26,000 quoted companies. The coverage is split into over 6,000 UK company boards, 9,000 US company boards, and a further 6,000 company boards, split between Europe and the rest of the world. For some companies the data goes back to 1997.
The value of BoardEx is the ability to search the database, explore networks of connections between people and companies and to analyse and benchmark boards of quoted companies and their directors. BoardEx provides detailed information on remuneration, experience, other board appointments, accumulated wealth, Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) status, biographical history, past and present connections with other companies and organizations and announced changes.
BoardEx can also be used to track individuals, or sets of individuals, as their portfolio of board membership changes; or to identify the influence of an educational institution through the board membership of its alumni.
It can be time consuming tracing individual executives and extracting relevant actions and details. BoardEx eases this process by providing ready made Core Reports in Excel files. Access is available to the following:
1. Compensation (UK, Europe, ROW)
2. Board structure (UK)
3. Director profile (UK)
4. Director profile (Europe).
5. Committee detail (UK)
6. Director network (UK)
7. Company details (UK)
8. Company announcements (UK)
Access to the core reports is for SoSS staff and students only. SoSS students can request access the reports by emailing IShelp@hw.ac.uk.
