The 2021 winning rankings cap an exceptional year for Element Markets, which in January announced its majority acquisition by TPG’s The Rise Fund, the world’s largest impact investing platform. Over the 11 months following that announcement, the company has expanded its workforce by greater than 60 percent and realized significant growth across business lines.

Element Markets Vice President of Environmental Products John McDougal remarked, “The past year has made even more clear that we must accelerate our decarbonization efforts using all of the tools available – including low carbon fuels to carbon credits to renewable energy credits – to drive the energy transition and meet the goals of the Paris Agreement. We are honored that our peers and clients have once again designated Element Markets as their top choice within these essential environmental markets and look forward to continuing to empower businesses to do well by doing good.”
