The listed 2025 World's Most Ethical Companies Honorees outperformed a comparable index of global companies by 7.8 percentage points from January 2020 to January 2025.

The World's Most Ethical Companies assessment is grounded in Ethisphere's proprietary Ethics Quotient , which requires companies to provide  240+ different proof points on practices that support robust ethics program ; governance; a culture of ethics; environmental and social impact; and initiatives that support a strong value chain. That data undergoes further qualitative analysis by our panel of experts who spend thousands of hours vetting and evaluating each year's group of applicants. This process serves as an operating framework to capture and codify best-in-class ethics and practices from organizations across industries and from around the world.

Ethisphere is the global leader in defining and advancing the standards of ethical business practices that strengthen corporate brands, build trust in the marketplace, and deliver business success. Companies turn ethics, and culture into a business advantage by leveraging Ethisphere's data-driven program and culture assessments featuring the latest guidance and the practices of hundreds of global organizations across the 8 pillars of an ethical culture, and 240+ ethics, social, and governance data points delivered through a proprietary software platform.
