Three Dutch companies feature in a new ranking of the world’s top 10 most sustainable companies.
The list, put together by ‘clean capitalism’ business magazine Corporate Knights, puts financial services group ING in fifth place, behind Siemens, Storebrands, Cisco and Danske Bank. Electronics giant Philips comes in seventh place and chemicals group DSM is ninth.
Corporate Knights produces a list of the top 100 sustainable firms every year to coincide with the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos.
The ranking looks at environmental issues as well as the wage gap between executives and the average member of staff.
In total, there are five Dutch firms in the full ranking. Publishing group Wolters Kluwer is in 77th place and computer chip maker ASML is at 95.
