Global IDExchange

Membership

The research is free. Applying is what certification buys.

Nothing on this platform’s 52 regime maps, its feed, its 981 live seats or its tools is behind a paywall, and none of it will be — registering costs nothing and shows you everything. What a membership buys is the right to apply, and it begins with the assessment rather than with a price.

Certification is free and runs 12 months. Foresight Infinity then moves you to one application a day for US$250 a month, and Foresight Infinity Plus at US$500 is carried first on every seat, the moment it is matched. Monthly only; nothing renews on its own.

How this works

Every seat here is applied for by a certified director.

That is the whole difference. A sponsor reading applications from this Exchange knows the pool has been tested — which is why the briefs are real and why an application gets read. Five steps, and the first three are free.

  1. 1

    Register — free

    Read every brief, every regime map and both tools. Nothing is hidden behind the paywall and nothing ever has been. You can apply straight away — one application a fortnight.

  2. 2

    Sit the assessment — free, about 30 minutes

    15 judgement questions on statutory duty, your functional depth and cross-border practice. Sitting it costs nothing and you see your band and a gap report either way — so you learn something about your own standing whether or not you go further.

  3. 3

    Pass, and you are certified — free, for 12 months

    There is no fee to certify. A certified member applies to board, interim and advisory seats, one application a week. That alone is more than most directors act on in a quarter.

  4. 4

    Then, if you want the rate — Foresight InfinityUS$250 a month

    Your application is collated, verified against your profile and carried to the sponsor every week instead of waiting out the seat’s priority period — and we search for you rather than waiting for you to look. Foresight Infinity Plus, US$500 a month, is carried first, the moment it is matched, with a document written for that seat and your score attached.

    Monthly only — there is no annual term on either. One payment a month; nothing renews on its own.

  5. 5

    Your certificate and your membership are not the same thing

    The certificate runs 12 months. A membership renews every month. If you stop paying you do not go back to the beginning — you keep the certificate you earned and return to one application a week until it expires.

First in the order, and you arrive already assessed — a document written for the seat, with your score attached.

US$500 a month

Monthly only. One payment; nothing renews on its own.

  • First in the order — ahead of every other tier, on every seat, in every class.
  • A document written for the seat — not the profile you uploaded. The Board Practice builds a profile for the mandate in front of you and sends what that specific brief asks for.

  • Your profile, built with you — the Board Practice works your record into the profile a nomination committee reads, and keeps it current as your remit changes.
  • Market-specific eligibility work — the DIN and databank route for India, Central Bank pre-approval for Ireland, the director ID for Australia.
  • Confidential throughout — on both sides. Your candidacy and the sponsor's brief stay inside the Exchange.

How the two tiers work

Reading is free everywhere. Applying is where the tier shows.

Gating the research behind a paywall would have been the easier product and a worse one: the research is what makes anyone trust the seats. So the regime maps, the feed, every brief on the board and both tools stay open to everyone, member or not.

A certified member applies to one statutory board seat in any rolling month. That is not a throttle; it is the product — one considered application a month is more than most directors make in a quarter. Foresight Infinity is for the director working several markets at once, where the right brief opens in Singapore on Monday and in Dublin on Thursday.

Both windows are rolling rather than calendar, so an allowance refreshes a month (or a day) after the application that used it — not at an arbitrary midnight. Every application, on either tier, is read by the Board Practice against the brief, and where it stands is told on your dashboard rather than left to guess.

What happens after you subscribe

  1. 1Foresight Infinity opens on your account the moment the payment clears — no call, no wait.
  2. 2The allowance becomes one application a day, read ahead of free members, and every seat that fits your record is brought to you.
  3. 3Whisper, our world-class custom job-search agent, starts searching for you around the clock — beyond the board, for global independent director, non-executive, interim and advisory mandates.
  4. 4Each application is read by the Board Practice and framed for the sponsor before it goes forward.
  5. 5Regime-change alerts for your markets, and eligibility work — a DIN, a Central Bank pre-approval, a director ID — where a seat needs it.

Start by being certified. Sitting the assessment and holding the certificate cost nothing, and a certified member already applies to board, interim and advisory seats, one application a week. Pay only when you want the rate: US$250 a month, or US$500 to be carried first, with a document written for the seat.

For boards and nomination committees

Opening a seat 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.

Registration takes two minutes and commits you to nothing. Run the mobility index first if you would rather arrive already knowing which markets to follow.
