In Asia-Pacific, China receives a weighting of six; Australia and India are each weighted three, while Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Taiwan each weighted one.
For the overall Asia-Pacific rankings, Omnicom's OMD tops the list, followed by Carat and GroupM's Maxus.
