A Great online innovation

The Web offers shareholders a rich trove of information and data. But it has small value in today’s fast-paced commercial environment if you can’t rapidly find the nuggets you require. That’s why BusinessWeek is introduction the Company Insight hub on BusinessWeek.com.

The CIC, or Companies Channel, merge our resources with those of average & Poor’s (MHP) Capital IQ division (like Business Week, a part of The McGraw-Hill Companies (MHP)) to drag together up to 33 pages of records, charts, news stories, and profiles on each of 42,000 public companies in the America and overseas. The result: an unparalleled selection of corporate data.

CIC offers simple navigation to find you from, say, stock value charts that you can customize; to incomes reports and estimates; to outlines of chief director and board members; to a record of their stock trades. Also available are information on some 320,000 private companies, while since they’re private, the records are more limited.

Want to know what public, private, boards and nonprofit—those execs and managers sit on? The public page in the Companies Channel can illustrate you that. As you click on all board members, you can notice the other board member and their affiliations. Click on any of those managers, and you see their other boards and who else sits on them, and so on. You won’t get this feature, a service of proprietary from Capital IQ, anyplace else on the Web without paying a heavy fee.
