Corporate Monitor's research services were developed to address the lack of information relevant to the ESG industry in Australia. Our commitment to providing information on the ethical style and activities of Australian companies, managed funds and the overall ESG market has enabled us to gain a strong position for research services and publishing in the ESG sector.

Our research procedures are robust and transparent, and utilise public information on company and fund managers. The Corporate Monitor database is Australia's most extensive source of public information about the non-financial performance of major Australian companies and fund managers. We collect data from a very wide range of reputable sources covering a wide range of issues. Data is sent to CEOs for their review prior to publication. Our data is not dependent on a company's willingness to respond to a questionnaire or an agreement to keep relevant information off the record.

Corporate Monitor employs a number of methods to gain the information contained in the particular services that it offers. A description of the methodology used for each of our services is listed below:

• Sustainability Dividend Index
• Company Ratings
