Reshaping Investor Relations

Grand Rapids, MI, 02/04/03 -- The investment decision starts with finding a trustworthy company." Said Chairman Hamilton as part of a series on the solution to investor suspicion. The question is: Where can they go to find one? Do you know? Do you? . . . It is fundamentally the first step because if you cant trust the company, if you cant be sure of what they say, it isnt an investment; it becomes a gamble. If what you know about them is suspect in any way then you cant rely on it, you just as well not know it. That makes buying stock in that company no different than picking a pony at the races."

The services that VeriDEX provides to investors address this fundamental issue head on. Individual investors have the power to raise questions and get answers. If they are suspicious about something that was said, or reported, through VeriDEX they can confront the company with the concern. This is a powerful tool . . . over time investors will reshape their relationship with corporate America." Said Hamilton.

The integrity index (iDEX) will show investors how a particular company measures up against those already in their portfolio as well as the entire index. According to Hamilton The measurement is not about performance as an investment its about ‘Have they done what they said, and have they said what they have done? Choosing an investment has to start with trusting the people that you are giving your money to."

His concluding remarks left no doubt investors will have an intricate part in defining the scale by which corporate integrity will be measured. As issues are raised the iDEX will catalog them and subscribers will value them by degree of virtue or vise. The rankings of indexed companies will dynamically adjust to reflect these values. If you are invested in a company that is moving to the negative end of the scale you will probably dump them and find one that is moving toward greater trustworthiness."
