Which Swiss companies are generating the strongest positive revenue contribution to the UN Sustainable Development Goals?
Our latest SDG Impact analysis looks across the constituents of the Swiss Performance Index (SPI) to identify the 30 companies with the highest average positive revenue contribution to the 17 SDGs.
The analysis goes beyond stated sustainability ambitions. Using Inrate’s business activity-impact approach, company revenues are mapped across approximately 450 business activities and assessed for their positive and negative contributions to individual SDGs. The result is a revenue-linked view of where business activities contribute to, or detract from, the priorities of the 2030 Agenda.
The Top 30 reveal an interesting picture of the Swiss market. Financial Services and Machinery & Industrial Equipment emerge as the most represented sectors, with nine companies each, while the wider ranking spans communication, housing, chemistry, software, transportation, energy, clothing and nutrition.
From Gurit and Feintool Holding to Givaudan, Stadler Rail and VAT Group, the report offers a closer look at the companies leading the ranking and the underlying revenue contribution shaping their position.
What does positive SDG contribution look like when viewed through the lens of actual business activities and revenues?

And stay tuned: the next edition is already lined up for October 2026. Following the publication of Inrate’s new ESG Impact ratings for SPI entities by the end of August, we plan to update the SDG analysis with FY2025 data. The current edition is based on FY2024 data.
