The Swiss Annual Report Rating includes the annual reports of all listed companies represented in the SPI. The list is supplemented with the 50 companies with the highest turnover, the 15 insurance companies with the highest premium volume and the 25 banks with the highest balance sheet total and comprises 238 companies in 2019.
This sample was evaluated by three juries in succession. Firstly, by the jury of the Institute for Banking and Finance (Value Reporting) of the University of Zurich under the direction of Prof. Dr. Alexander F. Wagner, secondly by a design jury under the direction of Jonas Voegeli and Jiri Chmelik from the Zurich University of the Arts. Then a final jury headed by Hans-Peter Nehmer, HarbourClub board member and Head of Corporate Communications at Allianz Suisse, evaluated the twelve best annual reports - print and online - of the year selected by the preliminary juries.
Hans-Peter Nehmer: "The Liechtensteinische Landesbank is a company that has always been among the top twelve in its class over the past ten years. This consistency in quality has now been rewarded with this year's top position. The Liechtensteinische Landesbank is listed on the Swiss stock exchange and is therefore part of our rating."
