Euromoney's seventh Asian company ranking is based on a survey of market analysts at major banks and research institutes in Asia. We received 150 replies, a 44% increase on last year's 104. Respondents were asked to nominate the top-three companies in each of the countries or sectors they covered, bearing in mind market strength, profitability, growth potential and quality of management and earnings. Points were awarded on the usual scale of 4:3:2. We received nominations for 813 companies for all categories.
A number of other countries and industry sectors were included in the survey but did not receive enough responses to be published.
