The document summarizes the results of a survey conducted in 14 countries between April 30 and May 11, 2021 about trust during the COVID-19 pandemic. Some key findings include:
- Most people remain in a "pandemic mindset" and do not feel safe resuming normal activities even if vaccinated.
- The top negative consequences of the pandemic are seen as increased mental health problems and lost jobs that will not return.
- More people now view climate change, information crisis, and supply chain over-reliance as threats due to the pandemic experience.
- Nearly 7 in 10 respondents fear another pandemic worse than COVID-19.
Amazing insight into the pulse of trust amid a global pandemic!
What I found most interesting is "the survey also uncovers a sense of underlying optimism that business leaders must tap into in order to positively transition out of the current situation and return to work. As horrible as the pandemic is, 64 percent of U.S. respondents believe this situation will lead to valuable innovations and changes for the better in how we live, work and treat each other as people."

Energy - Edelman Trust Barometer 2014, UK DataEdelman_UK
The UK energy sector results from the 2014 Edelman Trust Barometer.
The annual Trust Barometer is the largest study of its kind, and explores rising and falling levels of trust across twenty-seven markets, and 33,000 people; considering different industry sectors; as well as the impact and perception of government, business, media and society
Edelman Trust Barometer 2017 - UK ResultsEdelman_UK
The 2017 Edelman Trust Barometer is the firm’s 17th annual trust and credibility survey. It measures trust across a number of institutions, sectors and geographies.
The 2016 Edelman Trust Barometer revealed that trust in all four institutions measured – government, business, the media and NGO’s – is increasing, with business in the lead. Across the 33,000 respondents in 28 countries, we saw a rise of 5 percent in trust in business this year, a larger increase than in any of the other three institutions. Those surveyed also trust business more than the other institutions to keep pace with the changing times.

In 2012, trust in financial services was at 43 percent on a global basis. In 2016, global trust in this industry is at 51 percent – an 8-point increase over this five-year period, the most of any industry the barometer surveys.
Financial services, however, is still the least trusted industry we survey. Trust is too fragile, and today’s financial services climate is too unpredictable for companies to rest on their laurels. The industry needs to continue to be dynamic and double-down on trust building solutions.

Edelman Trust Barometer: U.S. Energy Industry Edelman
There is a need and struggle to balance economic, environmental, security and societal concerns related to energy demand, production and impact. As U.S. energy companies look for domestic opportunities to bring energy solutions and economic benefits to Americans, policymakers face the complex balancing act between resource development and economic, environmental and political realities. When it comes to having a license to lead and operate in the energy space, the stakes are high, and trust and reputation are critical.
2014 Edelman Trust Barometer: Global Energy FindingsEdelman
The energy industry faces significant trust deficits that are inherent to its industry, but Edelman’s 14th annual Trust Barometer shows how various sectors — including renewables, natural gas, utilities, oil and mining — must engage in order to operate in the current trust environment.
The 2016 Edelman Trust Barometer shares disturbing news about a widening gap in trust in all major institutions between the informed public and mass population.
The story for the healthcare industry is a cautionary tale and one that bears watching. At a global level, and using general population (informed public plus mass population) findings* with 28 countries surveyed, healthcare is near the bottom with a trust score of 61, just ahead of Telecommunications, Energy and Financial Services.

2017 es el año de la Crisis de Confianza.
La confianza en las instituciones cae en caída libre.
- El 75% de los países que participan en el estudio, desconfían del gobierno.
- El 82% de los encuestados desconfían de los medios de Comunicación.
La desconfianza está instalada en el sistema y afecta a todo tipo de instituciones: empresas, medios de comunicación, gobiernos y, por primera vez, desde que se hace el estudio, aparecen las ONGs.
El estudio desvela que:
- El 53% de la población cree que el sistema no funciona.
- Solo el 15% piensa que el sistema funciona.
- El resto, el 32% se muestra indeciso.
Entre las preocupaciones más populares que motivan la desconfianza en el sistema:
-La corrupción.
-La globalización
- La erosión de los valores sociales.
-El fenómeno de la inmigración.
- La incertidumbre que genera la rapidez con las que se producen las innovaciones.
El Barómatro de Confianza 2017 identifica tres atributos que ayudan a construir confianza en las empresas y marcas:
- Los empleados como elemento indispensable. Las empresas tienen que dar un giro y tomar conciencia que el talento hay que retenerlo y que los empleados son la base de generación de confianza. Tratar bien los empleados es vital.
- Ofrecer productos y servicios de calidad.
- Escuchar y empatizar con los clientes.
2016 Edelman Trust Barometer Hong Kong ResultsEdelman
2016 Edelman TRUST BAROMETER revealed trust in all four institutions has reached its highest level since the Great Recession, with business receiving the largest increase in trust among both the informed public and the larger general population.
The global rebound of trust has failed to take root in Hong Kong. Following years of declines, taking Hong Kong from the fifth to seventeenth most trusting nation surveyed, this year’s results indicate an ongoing sense of uncertainty about the future of the SAR’s institutions.
This year’s lecture will include a deep analysis of trust in CEOs and roadmap for CEOs to address the trust gap in Hong Kong, with sentiment towards business leaders here failing to match the improvements recorded globally.

Surveying 8,000 people online and 32,000 via mobile phones, the 2018 Edelman Earned Brand study shows that now 60% of consumers in Japan either buy or boycott brands based on their stances on societal issues.
The 2017 Edelman Earned Brand, a study conducted among 14,000 consumers in 14 countries, explores the rise of belief-driven buyers, who will buy a brand, switch from it, avoid it and— at the extreme — boycott it based on a brand’s stance on a controversial issue.

Government involvement is
essential on broad societal

Lean into comparative
advantage
Business must make
choices and lead where
they have expertise—jobs,
training, fair wages and
innovation—and continue
to take action on inclusion

Business has proven itself
