Hong Kong Corpus of Corporate Governance Reports (HKCCGR)

Welcome to the HKCCGR developed by the Research Centre for Professional Communication in English of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.

The one-million word HKCCGR consists of the corporate governance reports of 217 companies listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. These companies were carefully chosen to reflect the weighting of the four main sectors listed on the exchange (i.e. finance, utilities, property, and commercial and industrial). The moves which comprise the corporate governance reports were identified and 25 sub-corpora were compiled based on each move.

There are currently 1,034,673 words in the HKCCGR.
