CorpGov.net is an independent, long‑running corporate governance blog and shareholder‑advocacy platform maintained by James McRitchie that publishes news, analysis, proxy season tracking, and calls to action promoting stronger shareholder rights, transparency, and democratic governance of public companies.
Advocates for shareholder rights and engagement, proxy access, declassification of staggered boards, enhanced proxy voting transparency and participation, greater fiduciary accountability, access to special meetings and corporate books and records, and SEC and state rulemaking to protect retail investor voice (including positions on ESG-related shareholder proposals).
Primarily supported by small individual donations and voluntary contributions (PayPal) and the personal support of its operator; not a registered political action committee or tax‑exempt charity.
Founder/author James McRitchie; frequently cites or collaborates with shareholder advocacy groups and activists such as As You Sow and the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility (ICCR), proxy advisors, investor activists (e.g., John Chevedden in historical context), and public pension investors like CalPERS in coverage and campaigns.
