Diligent Stewardship Intelligence Arms Asset Managers with Independent Proxy Data Up to 70% Faster

New data feed gives asset managers policy-ready governance just six days after filing, extending the analysis window by 10-15 days

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Diligent, the AI leader in governance, risk and compliance (GRC) SaaS solutions, today announced the launch of Diligent Stewardship Intelligence, an independent proxy and voting intelligence data solution that delivers critical governance, compensation, and decision-supporting data directly into asset managers’ workflows. With policy-ready data available as early as six days after proxy filings, up to 70 percent faster than other providers, the solution extends the governance and compensation intelligence of Diligent Market Intelligence, giving stewardship teams the timely, accurate insights they need for clearer, more defensible decisions.

Proxy season has become a major operational and data burden for asset managers. A firm can face more than 75,000 ballot items in a single season, at a time when regulators, clients and activists expect greater transparency and firm‑specific voting policies. Without structured data and automation, stewardship teams are forced either to scale analyst resources or rely heavily on proxy advisors, creating a gap between the volume of decisions asset managers must make and the quality of information available to support them.

To close this gap, Diligent Stewardship Intelligence delivers a structured data feed that integrates directly into clients’ systems, enabling them to power their own analysis, AI models, and voting policies while retaining full control over how stewardship decisions are made. This data gives teams an extra 10 to 15 days to interpret filings, apply internal policies, and prepare for shareholder meetings. Available via the Snowflake Data Marketplace, the independent feed enables firms to operationalize their own voting frameworks at scale, with full traceability back to internal policies and governance approaches.

“Stewardship decisions are only as strong as the data behind them,” said Jeffery Davis, Head of Diligent Market Intelligence at Diligent. “What asset managers tell us they need most is depth and quality in the datasets that matter, not more surface‑level summaries or generic recommendations. Diligent Stewardship Intelligence gives teams structured information they can dig into and actually work with, which ultimately leads to more thoughtful voting analysis and better‑informed engagements.”

Diligent Stewardship Intelligence expands the Diligent Market Intelligence offering, delivering governance, executive compensation, and activist datasets with broader coverage in a raw, policy-ready data feed. The solution delivers more than 525 compensation data points and 300 governance fields per company, giving organizations the depth and structure required to operationalize their own voting policies at scale.

Diligent Stewardship Intelligence is already being adopted within the proxy workflows of leading global asset managers and is now available for stewardship teams building independent voting programs.
