**Gamuda Named Among World’s Most Sustainable Firms, Secures Top ESG Rating on Bursa Malaysia**
Market Impact
KUALA LUMPUR — Gamuda Berhad has been named one of the world’s most sustainable companies for 2026 by TIME and Statista, while also achieving the highest 4-star FTSE4Good ESG grading on Bursa Malaysia. The recognition places Gamuda as the sole Malaysian firm listed in the Resource Generation & Infrastructure category, which includes utilities, heavy engineering, mining support, and raw material supply.
Gamuda ranked 239th globally out of more than 5,800 companies evaluated across 43 countries, with only 750 firms making the final list. The TIME-Statista ranking assesses sustainability across environmental and social performance, corporate transparency, reporting quality, and alignment with global ESG benchmarks. The company’s inclusion reflects strong sustainability practices and disclosures, reinforcing its role in delivering infrastructure that supports long-term economic and community outcomes.
On the local front, Gamuda’s FTSE4Good ESG rating improved to 3.7, earning it a place in the top 25% quartile and the highest 4-star grading under the FTSE4Good Bursa Malaysia Index. The upgrade was driven by stronger performance in the Social and Governance pillars, enhancing the group’s ESG risk management and competitiveness in sustainability-linked financing and ESG-driven business opportunities.
The improved rating signals to institutional investors that Gamuda’s ESG risk management aligns with global standards, potentially supporting inclusion in ESG-screened investment mandates and more favorable terms for sustainability-linked financing. It also strengthens the group’s position in tenders where ESG credentials are increasingly a key pre-qualification criterion.
Gamuda views sustainability as central to its operations across engineering, infrastructure, and property development. The group’s expansion in key regional markets is guided by the Gamuda Green Plan, which emphasizes resilient, responsibly governed projects designed to benefit communities over the long term.
These independent recognitions underscore Gamuda’s commitment to sustainable value creation. Further details on the company’s sustainability initiatives and future projects were not immediately available.
