Sustainable Insight: Water Scarcity – A dive into global reporting trends | 17The 100 largest companies in each ofthe 34 countries were identified usingrevenue rankings from a recognizednational source. In some instanceswhere a ranking was not available orwas incomplete, substitutes such asmarket capitalization or other sectorappropriatemeasures were usedto compile or complete the revenueranking list. All corporations wereeligible to be included regardless ofownership structure or operationalstructure.Sector comparisons are based on thetotal number of companies listed withinthe G250 and – as a result – data shouldbe considered indicative because anumber of sector groups representedsmall sample sizes. Countrycomparisons are based only on thosecompanies within the N100 that issueda CR report and therefore sample sizesmay be unequal (for example, with only20 of the top 100 companies in Indiaissuing a CR report, the sample size forIndia is limited to 20).© 2012 KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”), a Swiss entity.
