whythawk ratings: measuring effective development

In formal commercial economic environments investors rely on information provided by independent rating organisations to assess the risk and potential of the vast number and range of companies competing for investment.

In the informal sector, corporations, charitable foundations and government agencies rely on the organisations themselves to comply with reporting criteria and fit their timetables and funding requirements, or not receive investment at all.

ithout clear context or proper demographic understanding, investors often make short-term decisions about where to invest.  Popular organisations are overwhelmed with capital and pushed into areas not their central focus, while other organisations languish in obscurity.
