The ECGI Blog is Coming

ECGI is excited to announce the forthcoming launch of The ECGI Blog.  The ECGI Blog will be a global voice on corporate governance, corporate responsibility, and stewardship. Through comment and analysis from the ECGI network and beyond, the Blog will enhance the wider understanding of related research, igniting, provoking, and influencing global debate. The ECGI Blog will focus on selected themes with global interest and will spotlight a new theme every two months. The Blog will also encourage responses to published articles, from all audiences. Blog articles will be shared with ECGI subscribers twice monthly and all published articles will be featured on the ECGI website. 

If you are not already subscribed to the ECGI mailing list, click here to subscribe.

Submissions to the Blog are welcome at all times. Editors are likely to prioritise submissions that have not already been published on other platforms, and are received by ECGI Fellows and research members. Submissions are welcome from other ECGI member categories and also non-members with relevant expertise in corporate governance and stewardship. Submissions from undergraduates are not accepted. Submissions of strong current interest which fit with the Blog themes may also have priority. 'Letters to the Editor' are also welcome through the same submission process. Due to the limited number of article publications in each issue, unfortunately many articles will not be selected for publication. To increase the likelihood of acceptance, it is suggested to adhere to the informal style of the blog and to keep within approximately 800 words.

Before submitting, please review the Submissions Guidelines carefully along with the ECGI Blog FAQ section. It may also be useful to review the ECGI Blog Style Guide. Each newsletter will include a link to submit articles. Queries can be submitted to blog@ecgi.org

Meet the Editorial Team. The ECGI Blog operates with the generous support of a number of volunteers from the ECGI network. There are two Editors-in-Chief, from the law and finance fields, who together with two Associate Editors, provide editorial guidance and direction for the Blog. An Editorial Board and an Advisory Board each advise and guide the Blog team, reviewing standards, discussing trends, and identifying articles and ideas for the Blog. Members of the Boards are identified from ECGI’s appointed research network and institutional members.
