Site Launch

Completion of the first phase of the development of the Corporate Governance Intellectual Capital (CGIC) Archive. The completion of this phase culminates the collection of corporate governance data related to publicly traded firm listed in Singapore from 1998 to present.

Unveiling of future developments

The second phase of the development of CGIC Archive has recently been instigated and will soon be incorporated into the CGIC Archive site. The second phase will witness the incorporation of the Intellectual Capital (IC) database. The IC database is first-ever electronic source providing extensive details on the intellectual capital performance of a large body of firms within a prominent capital market.

Bridging Two Key Disciplines

Corporate governance is a prominent issue in Singapore (and around the world) whilst the nation's economic base hinges on intellectual capital. Databases accessible to users on this site will enable them to personally analyze corporate governance features and intellectual capital performance of publicly traded firms listed in Singapore on a cross-sectional and longitudinal basis.

Ground breaking research

To date research on corporate governance and intellectual capital issues have been treated as if they were separate. Various points, however, highlight the overlap between the two. Via rigorous and detailed research both individually and in collaboration, the CGIC Archive will be the first to extend a bridge to explore the links between corporate governance and intellectual capital.

Formation of the Corporate Governance Database

The Corporate Governance (CG) Archive provides a pivotal centralized depository for developing historical and current corporate governance profiles of publicly traded firms listed in Singapore. This database provides users one of the only concentrated sites providing corporate governance data not only in Singapore but the world.
