Relevant companies are notified by email of biannual open window periods. Opt-in to peer submission communications.
Glass Lewis’ Peer Methodology
Glass Lewis has Glass Lewis has a rigorous, state-of-the-art peer methodology that informs our Pay-for-Performance Model, and our Say on Pay recommendations. Beginning with a company’s self-disclosed peers, Glass Lewis then includes investor views on both industry-based and country-based peers, in addition to the company’s peers-of-peers. This approach ensures additional screens based on corporate revenue, market capitalization, and assets; weightings also consider the source and frequency of confirmation, and peer rankings are based on a strength-of-connection approach that considers all potential peers, not just those resulting from the network effects of corporate disclosures.
