Fourth Consecutive Year Ricoh Makes List
WEST CALDWELL, N.J., Feb. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- For the fourth consecutive
year Ricoh Company Ltd., parent company of Ricoh Americas Corporation, has
been named to the "Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World,"
known as the "Global 100."
Started in 2005 by Corporate Knights Inc. of Canada, the top 100
corporations in the world are selected from more than 1,800 large
corporations in all business sectors based on research and analysis of data
provided by Innovest Strategic Value Advisors Inc. in USA.
The 2008 Global 100 was announced on at the Annual General Meeting of
the World Economic Forum held in Davos, Switzerland. The companies selected
for the Global 100 were analyzed in detail, compared to their industry
peers, and evaluated as the global corporations with the best-developed
abilities to effectively manage environmental, social and governance risks.
Achievement in these three areas, which significantly influences their
business results, was evaluated as a key indicator of management quality
and long-term financial performance.
Among the world's leading corporations, Ricoh's aggressive
environmental conservation activities along with its long-term vision
extending to 2050, was highly regarded. While the rigorous selection
process caused more than one third of the Global 100 corporations to be
replaced between 2007 and 2008, Ricoh has the honor of making the list four
consecutive years.
