This result appeared in an annual survey of "The World's Most Respected Companies" in the January 20 edition of the Financial Times. This is the 5th such survey since 1988. The survey was conducted by Price Waterhouse Coopers, interviewing 1000 CEOs from 20 different countries, mostly on the phone. Each CEO picked 3 respected companies in each category. Last year Ricoh was ranked 7th in the same category.
Founded in 1988 in London, the Financial Times has a circulation of 1,500,000 in 160 countries. Highly regarded among politicians and economists, the FT positions itself as a global financial daily.
