Three Chester County companies rank among the best in the region for diversity, governance, and transparency, three factors increasingly considered by investors, writes Erin Arvedlund for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The companies were ranked by German-based Arabesque, which specializes in analyzing environmental, social, and governance news along with other key indicators. The company’s S-Ray scoring system uses thousands of data points to evaluate companies and ranks them by two measures.

Its GC Score assesses how a company behaves in society, including how it stacks up in human and labor rights, the environment, and anti-corruption. Meanwhile, the ESG Score measures how well it manages business risks, analyzing factors such as independent board members, regular forensic audits, and maintaining sustainability.
