For us, Success is not just what's written in the financial statements” - Mr. Cenk Alper, CEO of Sabancı HoldingNEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, September 17, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- Time Magazine , one of the most prestigious media platforms in global policy and economics, has published its“World's Best Companies – 2024” list in collaboration with Statista. Sabancı Holding , representing Turkish business as a leader, successfully ranked 405th on the list with an overall score of 87.78, making it one of the top 500 companies globally.

The companies on the list, described by Time Magazine as“Companies that are changing the world,” are ranked based on an overall score. This score is calculated using a three-part formula that considers employee satisfaction survey results, revenue growth, and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) data.

Employee satisfaction scores are based on surveys conducted with around 170,000 participants from 50 countries, while revenue growth is determined by the companies' revenue increases from 2021 to 2023. In terms of ESG scores, factors such as carbon emission reductions, CDP ratings, the percentage of women on the board, and human rights policies are taken into account.

SETTING A GLOBAL EXAMPLE WITH A 44% FEMALE REPRESENTATION ON THE BOARD

Sabancı Holding has achieved significant successes in the areas highlighted under the ESG criteria by Time and Statista. In 2023, Sabancı Holding was included in the Global A List in the climate change category, becoming the only investment holding company from Türkiye on this list. Additionally, nine out of 11 Sabancı Group companies reporting to the CDP Climate Change Program achieved leadership levels with A or A- scores, tripling the number of leadership-level companies within the Sabancı Group compared to the previous year. With a 44% female representation on its board, Sabancı Holding is setting an example not only in Türkiye but globally as well.

No matter how profitable it may be, we will not undertake any investment that contradicts our understanding of sustainability.' This understanding is at the heart of the cultural and operational transformation Sabancı has undergone in recent years. We are very pleased that this approach has been recognized by leading global platforms such as Time and Statista.”
