As a global business ranking, the Global 100 identifies each year the top 100 companies that are most open to leading the way to a more sustainable world.
The Top 100 companies emerge from a pool of around firms, representing such large global indices as the S&P 500, MSCI World, FTSE 350 and Eurostoxx. Companies were selected on their ability to manage strategic opportunities in new environmental and social markets. Out of the 100 companies the Top 3 companies are chosen, based on their ability to manage strategic profit opportunities, that is, their ability to profit from recognising new environmental and social markets.
A list of the Top 100 companies is available on the Global 100 website. The website also offers information on the methodology, and a more detailed profile of the Top 3 companies.
