LAS VEGAS, Jan. 22, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- For the fourth
consecutive year, MGM Resorts International has been named one of
the "World's Most Admired Companies" by FORTUNE Magazine in its
annual survey of business leaders and analysts.
The survey, regarded as a definitive analysis of corporate
reputation, ranked MGM Resorts among the best in the world in the
category of Hotels, Casinos and Resorts. The list is a ranking of
the world's most respected and reputable companies, as ranked by
peers in their industry.
MGM Resorts, a leading global hospitality and entertainment
company, offers some of the most recognizable resort brands in the
world.
The Company creates immersive, iconic experiences through its
suite of 28 unique Las
Vegas-inspired offerings throughout the United States and worldwide. Over the past
year, the Company took a leadership role in expanding sports
betting throughout the United
States and debuted MGM Springfield in Massachusetts, MGM COTAI in Macau and the first international
Bellagio-branded hotel in Shanghai.
"MGM Resorts is constantly evolving and working to continue
delivering the best guest experience in the industry, and it's an
honor to once again be recognized for that hard work," said
Jim Murren, chairman and CEO of MGM
Resorts International. "The recognition that we are a FORTUNE 'Most
Admired Company' encourages us to continue to innovate not only in
guest service, but in our corporate social responsibility efforts
and commitment to advancing the quality of the communities in which
we operate."
The survey evaluated companies in 52 different industries.
FORTUNE and Korn Ferry, a global
management consulting firm, began with the 1,500 largest U.S.
companies ranked by revenue along with non-U.S. Fortune Global 500
companies with revenues of $10
billion or more. They then narrowed the field to the
highest-revenue companies in each industry, a total of 680 in 30
countries.
Some 3,800 executives, directors, and analysts were asked to
rate enterprises in their own industry. Rankings were based on nine
criteria, from investment value and quality of management and
products to social responsibility and ability to attract
talent.
