PIRC Information

PIRC was founded in London in 1986 and today we are the largest proxy research and voting advisory firm in Europe. PIRC is a small but complex business. Our role is to arm our asset owner and asset manager clients with the tools to manage governance risk within the portfolio investments they make. We are a relatively lean organisation. We focus on the data and quality research needed to provide the most effective voting recommendations on the agendas of thousands of company meetings during the proxy season. With two Executive Directors, our Non-Executive Directors and between 20-35 staff delivering corporate governance services, we serve a client base of pension funds and asset managers with combined assets of over £1.5 trillion. Our mission is to provide the right environment for all our staff to prosper and develop so that in turn, we all become more successful.
