Among the key takeaways for companies in Boardroom Resources' recap of TK Kerstetter's recent interview with State Street Global's Rakhi Kumar is her praise of Prudential's proactive disclosure about its adherence to the Investor Stewardship Group Corporate Governance Principles included in its 2018 Proxy Statement (see page 20).
As previously reported, State Street began screening for compliance with the ISG Governance Principles as of March 2018. Note, however, that proxy disclosure is not required; Ms. Kumar indicated to us in March that SSGA is not prescribing either the format for companies' compliance or how adherence to the Principles should be disclosed, but rather looks to individual companies to decide those particulars.
