This year’s Forbes editors drew on databases of 23,800 stock-traded firms in the Asia-Pacific, then winnowed 1,400 firms with revenues between 5 million USD and 1 billion USD in three consecutive years, and audited by Big 4 accounting firms of Deloitte, PwC, E&Y, and KPMG.
The majority of the short-list 200 firms were companies from Japan and China (including Hong Kong and Taiwan).
