Innovest Strategic Value Advisors launched the fourth Global 100 list of the most sustainable corporations in the world at the World Economic Forum in Davos. The Global 100 includes companies from 16 countries in sectors ranging from Oil and Gas to Wireless Telecommunication Services that were evaluated according to how effectively they manage environmental, social and governance risks and opportunities, relative to their industry peers.
This year, the UK accounted for the most constituents, at 24, plus two that are jointly headquartered in the UK. The US followed with 16 and Japan accounted for 13. For the first time a Chinese company - MTR Corporation, which runs Hong Kong's mass transit system – was included in the Global 100.
Thirty-two of last year's list fell out of the index this year, including Google, HSBC, and Scottish and Southern Energy. Meanwhile, new additions included private equity firm 3i, Spanish construction and energy company Acciona and mining company Rio Tinto.
