A score in the 1st decile (QS:1) indicates relatively higher quality governance practices and relatively lower governance risk, and, conversely, a score in the 10th decile (QS:10) indicates relatively higher governance risk. Companies receive an overall QualityScore and a score for each of four pillars: Board Structure, Compensation/ Remuneration, Shareholder Rights, and Audit & Risk Oversight.
