The Netherlands Board Index program is a unique longitudinal research project that systematically follows the evolution of corporate governance and board practices in the Netherlands.

The project began in 1996 and has evolved into a leading research project. Similar projects follow board practices in the US and the UK. See Spencer Stuart - www.spencerstuart.com - for more information on Board Indexes in other countries.
