If the anionic surfactant contained in the polishing composition has a polyoxyethylene group, the number of repeating oxyethylene units in the polyoxyethylene group is preferably 2 to 8. The anionic surfactant contained in the polishing composition can be an anionic surfactant that has a phosphate group, a carboxy group, or a sulfo group as well as a monooxyethylene group or a polyoxyethylene group. The content of the anionic surfactant in the polishing composition is preferably 20 to 500 ppm.
