Not only did Bank of America offer employees paid time off to complete coronavirus vaccine appointments in 2021, the financial services giant has emphasized employee well-being over the course of the pandemic. The company added new physical and mental health resources in the past year and converted live, in-person training sessions into a digital, on-demand program that workers can access 24/7 for help reducing stress, building resiliency, and understanding mental health warning signs. BofA continued to support working parents with up to $275 per child per month to help cover childcare expenses, free assistance with the college admissions and financial aid process, and free financial counseling. “The bank goes above and beyond in support of their employees and communities,” says one employee.

Many companies should consider the WFH set up especially with inflation and the other effects war can cause on an economy. The other biggest impact we have made was embracing social disparities and how we got financially involved.”

A booming year for banks boosted Bank of America, which saw its stock surge nearly 40% over the course of 2021 as it racked up $22 billion in profit. Rising asset-management and brokerage fees helped grow the bank’s wealth management division’s revenue 16%, to $5.6 billion.

The bank has been able to keep finances steady in a rocky 2022 by tapping into reserves built up during the pandemic to protect against loan defaults.

The financial services giant addressed employee welfare and economic well-being on numerous fronts in 2020. BofA saw through a previous commitment to increase its U.S. minimum hourly wage to $20—doing so a year ahead of schedule. The company made sure to help working parents during a stressful time, providing 3 million days’ worth of backup child and adult care and investing $300 million in care reimbursements for employees. High-risk workers were reassigned to roles they could perform remotely during the pandemic, while BofA continued to pay wages and salaries to those unable to work remotely. And the bank’s employee relief fund provided more than $6 million in grants to those experiencing emergency financial hardships.

Total revenue for the world’s biggest companies fell 4.8% to $31.7 trillion this year—the first decline in half a decade.

While stock markets raced ahead in 2020, much of the underlying economy continued to struggle. Bank of America, the country’s second largest bank by assets, saw both those dynamics at play in its businesses. Profits dropped 35% to $17.9 billion as the bank put billions on the back burner in preparation for bad loans resulting from the national shutdown. Meanwhile BofA’s investment banking and sales and trading units posted impressive results amid a frenzy of investing activity. And as vaccine rollouts in the U.S. picked up in April, CEO Brian Moynihan struck a far more optimistic tone as the bank released some of those reserves. “What we see different now is…an accelerating recovery versus the economic uncertainty that we would have faced the last year at this time,” he told shareholders, promising an eventual return to the office likely in September.

These companies foster supportive cultures, where employees find opportunities for growth with help from their colleagues.

Even as the U.S. minimum wage languishes at $7.25 per hour, Bank of America is raising the bar: In 2020 it upped its minimum hourly wage to $20; in  October 2021, it raised it to $21. The bank has promised to hike the minimum to $25 an hour by 2025. BofA has also spent $425 million on pandemic-era caregiving reimbursements for employees. The return on these investments: lower turnover, as more staffers see BofA as an “employer of choice.”

Bank of America has loaned $26 billion to pandemic-struck businesses through the Paycheck Protection Program. But some of its most valuable PPP loans were the ones it made through community development financial institutions (CDFIs). CDFIs are nonprofits that combine philanthropic money and private capital to support small businesses whose cash flow or credit histories scare off traditional lenders. This spring, an infusion of more than $250 million in additional credit from BofA, along with $10 million in grants, helped its partner CDFIs keep the doors open at a childcare center in Georgia and a housing and job-training service in Philadelphia, among many other operations. (Pictured at right are two owners of small businesses that partnered with the Community Loan Fund of Chicago, one of BofA's CDFI allies.) 
BofA has been building ties with CDFIs for 25 years: It now has a $1.6 billion credit portfolio with 255 CDFI partners across the U.S. It has also stepped up to support minority-owned banks, which often work closely with CDFIs. In early September, BofA announced it would make <a href="https://fortune.com/longform/black-owned-banks-banking-us-companies">$50 million in equity investments</a> in so-called minority depository institutions—capital to help them close the racial wealth gap.

Global business is back. After limping through a worldwide financial crisis and economic slowdown, the 500 largest companies ranked by revenues shattered all sorts of performance records in 2013: They racked up combined revenues of $31.1 trillion, up 2.5% from 2012, and profits soared 27% to nearly $2 trillion. China’s 95 companies (up from 89 last year) posted $5.8 trillion in revenues. The U.S. has four fewer companies on the list than last year but remains (for now) the country leader, with 128 corporations on the list—including No. 1 Wal-Mart Stores—reporting $8.6 trillion in revenues. 

Wal-Mart stayed on top as its sales crept closer to half-a-trillion dollars. Apple moved into the top five. And UnitedHealth Group continued its steady climb.
