About Audit Integrity and AGR Ratings
Audit
Integrity is an independent research service which forensically
analyzes the corporate behavior of over 8,000 publicly traded
companies, to detect and measure high risk accounting and governance
practices which are statistically associated with decreased equity
price performance, increased shareholder litigation and major financial
restatement.
Through extensive internal and third-party back tests, Audit
Integrity has established a direct correlation between its Accounting
and Governance Risk (AGR) ratings and the likelihood of such adverse
events. Its services are relied upon by a variety of clients, including
institutional investors, major insurers and auditors, regulatory bodies
and Fortune 500 companies.
