Corporate Knights ranked 139 financial co-ops among the 300 largest co-ops in the world by turnover, as identified by the World Co-operative Monitor 2013 report. We assessed each on 12 equally weighted quantitative indicators (2013 data) covering resources, employee, and financial management. The performance of a co-op on each indicator was compared against that of its GICS Industry peers. The better the performance relative to peers, the higher the score for that indicator. The final score, a simple average of the 12 individual scores, determined final ranking.
