IndexAlign
IndexAlign provides corporate political contribution data for public equities. It links U.S. federal campaign contributions from official FEC filings to stock tickers, totals them by election cycle and ranks each company against its peers.
Through the As You Know Data Partner Program, IndexAlign's corporate political spending data is hosted on the As You Know platform alongside our corporate sustainability datasets. Investors can see where a company's political money goes, in the same place they assess how it treats its workers, communities and the environment.
Licensing is available. IndexAlign data can be licensed through As You Know, on its own or together with our other datasets.

What each side brings
A complementary partnership
IndexAlign brings a specialist dataset on corporate political contributions. As You Know brings an established body of corporate sustainability research and a growing community of values-aligned investors and advisors.
For As You Know users
A missing piece of the corporate accountability picture
- Follow the money. See who a company actually funds, not only what it says publicly.
- Test for consistency. Compare political spending with a company's stated commitments and sustainability record.
- Peer context. Understand whether a company's political exposure is typical or an outlier in its sector.
- Stronger engagement. Back stewardship conversations and proxy decisions with numbers.
For IndexAlign
A mission-aligned channel to values-driven investors
- New audience and licensing channel. Reaches impact investors, asset managers and advisors already licensing corporate sustainability data through As You Know.
- Context alongside sustainability. Places political spending next to workforce, environmental and justice data.
- Visibility and attribution. Source recognition and links connect users back to IndexAlign.
- Wider adoption. Puts the data in front of users who might not otherwise look for political contribution data.
The shared vision
Make corporate political spending visible to the investors who own these companies
Political contributions shape the policies that affect workers, communities and the climate. Yet this information usually sits in raw regulatory filings that most investors never see. Linking it to tickers and placing it alongside corporate sustainability data brings it into everyday investment decisions.
Both organisations believe that transparency strengthens accountability, and that shareholders have a right to know how the companies they own use their influence.
The objective is not to take a political side. It is to make corporate political spending visible, so investors can weigh it for themselves.
