As You Sow, in collaboration with Whistle Stop Capital, has examined the websites and sustainability reports for each company in the Large-Cap 3000 to determine their current levels of transparency. Corporate disclosures of the aforementioned data contributed to companies’ scores, all of which were identified on a binary yes/no. That is, if a company releases the data set identified, it receives all of the possible points for that set. The weighting of each data set is a reflection of how important the information is from a transparency perspective, relative to an investors’ ability to understand the effectiveness of a corporate DEI program.
