Ricoh was listed again in the “2007 Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World” for three consecutive years

  This is the third consecutive year that Ricoh has been included in the list, known as the Global 100.

  Starting in 2005, Corporate Knights Inc. of Canada has selected the 100 top corporations in the world every year, after evaluating the sustainability of more than 1,800 large corporations in all business sectors based on research and analysis data provided by Innovest Strategic Value Advisors in USA. The 2007 Global 100 was announced on January 24, timed to coincide with the Annual General Meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The companies selected for the Global 100 are 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. The achievement in these three areas, which significantly influence their business results, has been evaluated as a key indicator of management quality and long-term financial performance.

  Among the world's leading corporations, Ricoh's aggressive environmental policy, along with its long-term vision extending to 2050, was highly regarded. And while the rigorous selection caused more than one third of the Global 100 corporations to be replaced between 2006 and 2007, Ricoh has the honor of being included on the list three times in a row.
