Membership
The research is free. What you pay for is being read.
Nothing on this platform’s 48 regime maps, its feed, its 32 live mandates or its tools is behind a paywall, and none of it will be. Knowing whether you are eligible in Singapore is research anyone should be able to do without paying for it.
A Global Passport buys something a database cannot give you: a considered view on which two or three markets your record is genuinely legible in, the rewriting that makes it legible there, and a candidacy put in front of a sponsor framed for the problem in the brief rather than forwarded as a CV.
Observer
Read the market. No account, no card, no conversation.
Free
- Every regional exchange — the full statutory regime map for all 48 markets.
- The central intelligence feed — every regulatory and market-structure item, with sources.
- The live mandate board — every brief, every class, with the provenance stated.
- The cross-border eligibility checker — your answer for any market, immediately.
- The mobility index — which markets your record actually travels to.
Global Passport
RecommendedBe positioned into the markets your record travels to — by people who have run board searches for twenty years.
US$1,200US$750 a year
Founding cohort — 100 places. Invoiced by the members office after a positioning call; no card is taken online.
- A cross-border positioning review with the Board Practice: which two or three markets your record is genuinely legible in, and what has to change in how it is written.
- Direct submission to mandates on the live board, with your candidacy framed for the sponsor rather than forwarded as a CV.
- Market-specific eligibility work — the DIN and databank route for India, Central Bank pre-approval for Ireland, the director ID for Australia, EDGAR credentials for the United States.
- Regime-change alerts for the markets you are targeting, before the tenure cap or composition rule that creates a seat is reported anywhere else.
- Corridor mapping — the specific routes your experience travels along, and the friction on each one, rather than a claim that you are portable everywhere.
- Interim and advisory access — the fastest routes onto a foreign board, and the ones a non-executive-only platform never shows you.
Why there is no card form on this page
We would rather not sell you a membership we cannot yet serve.
An instant checkout would take money from anyone who clicked, including people whose markets we have no live briefs in and people whose record, honestly assessed, is not yet ready for a first foreign board seat. Both would be paying for a disappointment.
So registration opens a conversation. If the positioning call concludes that the Passport is not worth it for you this year, we say so and you have lost nothing — and that conversation is also where the genuinely useful advice tends to happen, because it is the one where nobody is selling.
The same practice already runs this way for our advisory engagements, and it is the reason the Board Practice gets a second call rather than a refund request.
What happens after you register
- 1You register — five fields, no CV upload at this stage.
- 2We read your profile against the markets you named and against what those markets are currently short of.
- 3A positioning call: which markets are genuinely worth your effort, which are not, and what has to change in how your record is written.
- 4If the Passport fits, the members office invoices it. If it does not, we tell you what would make it fit and when to come back.
Founding cohort. 100 places at US$750 a year against a standard rate of US$1,200. The number is real; when the places are taken this line comes off the page.
For boards and nomination committees
Opening a mandate on the Exchange costs nothing. Where the search is retained, it is scoped and quoted like any Gladwin board engagement — and where a board only needs an interim leader for a defined window or an advisory engagement, it is scoped as that instead.
Global Passport
Start free. Decide about the Passport after the call, not before it.
Registration takes two minutes and commits you to nothing. Run the mobility index first if you would rather arrive at the call already knowing which markets you want to argue for.
