S&P Global, the world's largest market index provider, says a record 1,728 companies eligible for selection in one of the S&P Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes participated in the review in 2022, up 9% from 2021 . 

"Last year, more companies than ever participated in S&P's global corporate sustainability assessment (CSA)," said President and CEO Douglas Peterson in a report accompanying the release of the indexes. “The CSA forms the backbone of the research on which this report is based. We are grateful to the companies that participated in this process, demonstrating their continued commitment to transparency around ESG performance. “

Unlike ESG DataSets which rely only on publicly available information, the S&P Dow Jones claims its review is based on a combination of company disclosures through an exhaustive survey, as well as media coverage of the companies reviewed and stakeholder analysis. .

O índice de sustentabilidade mundial foi lançado pela primeira vez em 1999, tornando-o um dos mais antigos rankings de sustentabilidade/ESG (ambiental, social e governança).

A Cummins por último fez o índice de sustentabilidade S&P Dow Jones World em 2013 antes de voltar à lista em 2021 e agora 2022. A empresa disse estar empenhada em desempenhar um papel de liderança no esforço global para reduzir as emissões de carbono, ao mesmo tempo em que inicia programas para promover a equidade de gênero em todo o mundo e aborda o racismo institucional nos Estados Unidos.

O ranking avalia as maiores empresas de capital aberto da América em cinco áreas-chave-satisfação do cliente, engajamento e desenvolvimento dos funcionários, inovação, responsabilidade social e força financeira-para chegar a uma pontuação de eficácia.
