Twelve payers have been named among the most trustworthy companies in the nation in 2023 by Newsweek.
The March 31 ranking of 700 U.S. companies across 23 industries was compiled in collaboration with Statista. Analysts reviewed 3,100 U.S. based companies with revenues over $500 million. The rankings were based on results from an independent survey of about 25,000 U.S. residents who were asked questions regarding company trustworthiness. For companies that received enough feedback, analysts reviewed how they were discussed in online media and whether it was positive, negative or neutral. In total, over 270,000 company mentions were reviewed.
