Already among the leading players in the local industry, Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) received further recognition as one of Asia's top 100 companies with the highest sustainability performance.

ALI ranked #81 on Channel NewsAsia's Sustainability Rankings, the only Philippine corporation among the entries.

Touted as the first of its kind in Asia, the list was assembled from research provided by Sustainalytics. The award-winning firm, involved in sustainable investment research, addressed three themes: environment (operations, supply chain, products and services); social (employees, supply chain, customers, community and philanthropy); and governance (business ethics, corporate governance, public policy).

Regional broadcaster Channel NewsAsia, in partnership with Corporate Social Responsibility in Asia (CSR Asia) and Sustainalytics, launched the rankings system and honored its top 100 at the CSR Summit in Hong Kong this September.

It is truly an honor for Ayala Land to be recognized as one of Asias leading companies in sustainability. We continuously strive to include sustainability in our development processes and it has become integral in the way we do business, stated Bernard Vincent Dy, president and CEO of the property giant.

For us, sustainability means doing what we do best in order to contribute to society and to the nation in a positive way.
