Clarkson Centre for Board Effectiveness Board Shareholder Confidence Index 2018 Developed in spring 2003, the Board Shareholder Confidence Index comprises factors often used by active shareholders to assess Boards of Directors.* While there are other variables not in our model that contribute to the effectiveness of Boards -- including elements that can only be observed from inside the boardroom -- we capture factors affecting shareholders’ confidence in the Boards’ abilities to fulfill their duties. These factors are different from the TSX Guidelines for effective corporate governance in that they take into account the shareholders’ perception of risk. Based on factors available to those outside the walls of the boardroom, we evaluate and rank Boards of Directors by their potential to act in an effective way and by their performance, as indicated by past practices. The score is developed using four linked steps. The result is a transparent, objective, and adaptable rating system that assigns companies listed on the S&P/TSX Composite Index a score out of 150. *Please see the BSCI 2018 Methodology for further details.
