Banco Popular Dominicano achieved, for the second consecutive year, the top position among the 25 companies with the best corporate reputation in the country, according to the 2026 list published by Summa magazine in its special “Companies with the Best Corporate Reputation”.
The ranking was built from a survey conducted between May 4 and July 6, in which 2,000 senior regional executives participated. Respondents included chief executives, presidents, general managers, finance and marketing officers, who evaluated key aspects for their organizations’ reputation and nominated the three Dominican companies they considered benchmarks in the field.
Recognition based on consistency and strategy
According to the magazine, Popular’s position is due to a reputational management built with coherence, strategy and results throughout the bank’s history. “At Banco Popular we work to strengthen public trust each day through responsible, innovative communication aligned with our values and institutional purpose,” said Christopher Paniagua, executive president of Popular.
Complementary achievements in independent measurements
The recognition adds to the results the bank has achieved in other independent reputation assessments. In October 2025, Popular topped for the third consecutive year the Merco ranking of Companies of Dominican Republic, occupying the top position in reputation within the banking sector and maintaining leadership in the ranking of the company with the best ESG reputation. The same Merco evaluation recognized Popular as the company with the best communication team in the country.
Corporate reputation in the AI and social media era
The 2026 edition of Summa’s special devotes part to analyzing the role corporate reputation plays in a context marked by artificial intelligence, social media, and the rapid flow of information. The magazine notes that, although AI offers new capabilities to anticipate and respond to reputational challenges, its adoption requires rigorous security, governance, and ethical criteria.
Reputation is defined as an intangible asset that influences the perception companies generate in the minds of their audiences, affecting choices, recommendations, and brand advocacy.
