Ethical reputations of top pharma firms revealed

The latest ethical reputations of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies have been revealed, with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) emerging as big pharma’s Mother Theresa, according to a recently-released compilation by Geneva-based ethical-monitoring firm Covalence. Interestingly, earning power and ethical nature do not necessarily appear to go hand in hand. Covalence has published its quarterly ethical reputation ranking, highlighting the top 10 highest-ranking pharmaceutical companies, as well as those which have made the most progress in the first quarter of 2007, and the companies who have received the most positive news coverage.
