Time Magazine’s World’s Best Companies, now in its second iteration, is a comprehensive analysis of the top performing companies across the world. The study is based on 15 criteria including employee satisfaction, revenue growth, environmental protection, social responsibility and corporate governance.

Newsweek’s World's Most Trustworthy Companies, conducted in collaboration with global research firm Statista, reviewed businesses across 23 industries, spanning 20 countries. The survey considered all publicly listed companies with a revenue of more than $500m. 

“Trust is the foundation of our business, and we are very pleased to be recognised among the world’s best. We will continue to work hard to earn the trust of our clients, our investors and the communities and countries where we work,” says Tshabalala.
