For the 19th time, the editors of Puls Biznesu granted prestigious awards for the best listed companies. Benefit Systems ranked third in the "Development Prospects" category and took 7th place in the main ranking of listed companies of the year (moving up from 13th place in 2016), which recognises the top 10 companies from over 400 present on the WSE.
We are very happy to receive this award, because it is the best confirmation that we are creating real, not only financial value for various groups within the Company’s community. We would like to thank our clients, partners and, above all, MultiSport Card users for putting their trust in us, said Izabela Walczewska-Schneyder, board member and CFO at Benefit Systems on receiving the award.
The competition criteria are very measurable. Every year, independent market experts surveyed by the research company TNS evaluate the companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in terms of most competent management, outstanding success, highest quality of products and services, best relations with investors and most interesting development prospects. Based on the ratings in these categories, the main ranking is created, in which ten entities are awarded. This ranking indicates the best companies to imitate and appreciate. According to the authors of the ranking, "the awarded companies are the best ambassadors of the Polish capital market - thanks to the funds acquired on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, they have developed their business, have great development prospects, are focused on innovation, offer products of the highest quality, provide top-quality services and maintain the highest standards of communication with investors."
Benefit Systems S.A. has been operating on the Polish market since 2001, and since 2011 the company has been listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The company has developed the sport and recreational programme, MultiSport, which helps users lead an active and healthy lifestyle.
