LPL Financial has been recognized by Newsweek as a “Most Responsible Company” for 2023, the third time it has received that recognition.
Approximately 2,000 publicly traded companies were reviewed for the Newsweek ranking, and only those that had published a corporate sustainability report were considered, LPL said in a press release Wednesday.
An analysis of publicly available performance data in the environmental, social and corporate governance categories determined the winners. Responses to a survey of 11,000 U.S. citizens about their perceptions of the companies related to corporate social responsibility also played a role in producing the final ranking.
