Conducted by Corporate Knights, a Toronto-based international media and investment research firm, the Global 100 ranking is recognised as the world’s preeminent sustainability equity index and gold standard in corporate sustainability analysis. Announced at the World Economic Forum in Davos, companies listed on the 2019 Global 100 ranking were selected from some 7,500 publicly listed companies—each evaluated on a set of ESG indicators relative to their industry peers using publicly available information. City Developments Limited (CDL) has emerged as the top Singapore company in the 2019 Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World ranking, taking 25th place. This also makes CDL the first and only Singapore company to be listed on the Global 100 for 10 consecutive years. Accelerating CDL’s sustainability and climate change strategy, the company launched its Future Value 2030 Sustainability Blueprint in 2017, setting ambitious ESG targets to future-proof its business and contribute towards the UN SDGs.
