Our ESG Voluntary Initiatives
We take part in a number of voluntary ESG initiatives to make sure that the strategy that we believe in can be independently verified by external experts. We know that financial institutions and investors increasingly rely on ESG rating agencies to assess, measure and compare companies' ESG performance, but we also know that this is the right thing to do. We are proud to be recognized with strong scores by our peers and partners across the industry.
UNGC
The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) is a voluntary initiative that encourages businesses and organizations to adopt sustainable and socially responsible policies. Launched in July 2000 by the United Nations, it aims to align businesses' operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption. You can see our UNGC submission here.
