2024 US Awards

The Transparency Awards rank all corporate disclosure documents from the top 250 companies in the S&P 500 and recognize those dedicated to investor transparency through clear, concise, 
and effective information sharing.

In 2024, company rankings were determined through a review of proxy statements, Form 10-Ks, ESG reports, investor relations websites, and codes of conduct.

Each company’s documents were scored using 234 discrete criteria that flesh out the pillars of transparency.

The top S&P 250 companies are ranked, with no need to enter and no fee. Every company receives its personal and confidential annual ranking.

The criteria are objective.

The criteria are available on our website.
