Methodology & Scoring
The World's Most Ethical Companies
assessment is based upon the Ethisphere Institute’s Ethics
Quotient® framework, which offers a quantitative way to
assess a company’s performance in aspects of corporate governance, risk,
sustainability, compliance and ethics.
Scores are generated in five key categories: ethics and compliance program (corporate citizenship and responsibility), culture of ethics, governance and leadership, innovation and reputation. All companies that participate in the assessment process receive their scores, providing them with valuable insights into how they stack up against leading organizations.
