CA Technologies Named as a 2017 World's Most Ethical Company by the Ethisphere Institute for the Second Time
CA Technologies (News - Alert) (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that it has been recognized
by the Ethisphere Institute, a global leader in defining and advancing
the standards of ethical business practices, as a 2017
World's Most Ethical Company®.
For the second year in a row, CA Technologies has been recognized and is
one of only 3 winners in the Software and Services category,
underscoring the company's commitment to leading ethical business
standards and practices.
"Companies that want to succeed in the Application Economy - where the
world becomes smaller and customers grow more savvy every day - must
focus on operating their businesses with the highest ethical standards,"
stated Mike Gregoire, chief executive officer at CA Technologies. "We
know that to effectively build long-term partnerships with our
customers, a foundation of trust is fundamental. That requires an
unwavering commitment to conducting ourselves with integrity in every
aspect of our business. Without a strong ethical base, companies simply
cannot last. We are proud of everything we do, but we are also proud
that we do everything the right way."
"CA is honored to once again be named one of the World's Most Ethical
Companies by the Ethisphere Institute," states Joel Katz, chief ethics
and compliance officer, CA Technologies. "We believe that a strong
ethical foundation within our company is the best way to help ensure
sustainable business success. This recognition would not have been
possible without the positive contributions to our ethical culture from
our employees - all of whom should take pride in being included on this
year's list."
Twenty-seventeen is the eleventh year that Ethisphere has honored those
companies who recognize their role in society to influence and drive
positive change, consider the impact of their actions on their
employees, investors, customers and other key stakeholders and use their
values and culture as an underpinning to the decisions they make every
day.
"Over the last eleven years we have seen the shift in societal
expectations, constant redefinition of laws and regulations and the
geo-political climate. We have also seen how companies honored as the
World's Most Ethical respond to these challenges. They invest in their
local communities around the world, embrace strategies of diversity and
inclusion, and focus on long term-ism (News - Alert) as a sustainable business
advantage," explained Ethisphere's Chief Executive Officer, Timothy
Erblich. "Congratulations to everyone at CA Technologies for being
recognized as a World's Most Ethical Company."
Methodology & Scoring
The World's Most Ethical Company assessment is based upon the Ethisphere
Institute's Ethics
Quotient® (EQ) framework which offers a quantitative way
to assess a company's performance in an objective, consistent and
standardized way. The information collected provides a comprehensive
sampling of definitive criteria of core competencies, rather than all
aspects of corporate governance, risk, sustainability, compliance and
ethics.
Scores are generated in five key categories: ethics and compliance
program (35%), corporate citizenship and responsibility (20%), culture
of ethics (20%), governance (15%) and leadership, innovation and
reputation (10%) and provided to all companies who participate in the
process.
Honorees
This year, 124 companies were designated as World's Most Ethical
Companies. These companies represent 52 industry sectors headquartered
in 19 countries. The full list of the 2017 World's Most Ethical

Best practices and insights from the 2017 honorees will be released in a
