DALLAS, January 2, 2024 – Newsweek has recognized Comerica Bank for its efforts in corporate responsibility and fostering a positive work culture in its latest rankings. The national news magazine publication named Comerica to its list of America’s Most Responsible Companies, America’s Greenest Companies and America’s Greatest Workplaces.
For the fifth consecutive year, Comerica earned a spot on America’s Most Responsible Companies list which comprises 600 of the U.S.’s largest public corporations positively impacting their communities. Comerica finished seventh among financial industry companies and 103rd overall on the list that includes companies from across the country. Comerica is one of just 156 companies to earn a spot all five years the rankings have been published.
“Serving as a good corporate citizen goes beyond banking, it’s about leaving our communities, customers and colleagues stronger for years to come,” said Wendy Bridges, Executive Vice President, Executive Director of Corporate Responsibility. “Inclusion on this list among the most recognizable companies in the country underlines the importance we place on addressing impactful environmental and social issues.”
America’s Most Responsible Companies focuses on a holistic view of corporate responsibility that considers all three pillars of Environment, Social and Corporate Governance. The analysis is based on key performance indicator research, along with public surveys from 17,000 U.S. residents.
America’s Greenest Companies

The rankings recognize the top 300 companies for their progress in managing their sustainability footprint.
The list is based on research and analysis of public data of more than 900 organizations in the U.S. Companies were evaluated and scored on more than 25 parameters based on select categories that include: greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; water usage; waste generation; sustainability data disclosure and commitments.
