Sustainability (DJSI) World and Europe indices
Wendel is once again included in the Dow Jones
Sustainability World and Europe indices (DJSI) and improves its
score on the Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) of S&P
Global.
Following the results release of the 2021
Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) questionnaire published
on November 12, 2021, Wendel scored 76/100 in the Diversified
Financials category. This score is up 5 points compared to the 2020
assessment (71/100) and positions Wendel very well above the
average for its sector (27/100). This improvement is notably linked
to the progress of scores on the topics of cybersecurity,
protection of human rights and the fight against climate
change.
Through the review of the Corporate
Sustainability Assessment questionnaire, S&P Global assesses
the ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) performance of listed
companies in different industries since 1999. The top 10% of
companies with the best performance in terms of sustainability,
according to criteria defined for each industry, are included in
the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices.
Following this assessment, Wendel remains the
only French company in the Diversified Financials sector to be
present in the World and Europe indices of the DJSI. Out of 174
companies evaluated for this sector, only 14 companies were
included in the DJSI World. In the Worlwide index ranking of
Diversified Financial companies, Wendel is tied for 6th place.
André François-Poncet, Wendel’s Group CEO, said:
“This improved ranking from Dow Jones Sustainability indices
compared to 2020 rewards the efforts made by Wendel and its
portfolio companies over the past months. For several years, ESG
topics have been central to our strategy, and we are proud that our
approach continues to be recognized by DJSI, a world-renowned index
such.”
Manjit Jus, Global Head of ESG Research, S&P
Global, said : "We congratulate Wendel for being included in the
Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI). A DJSI distinction is a
reflection of being a sustainability leader in your industry. The
record number of companies participating in the 2021 S&P Global
Corporate Sustainability Assessment is testament to the growing
movement for ESG disclosure and transparency."
In addition, Wendel applauds the performance of
Bureau Veritas, a portfolio company since 1995, which also renewed
its inclusion in the DJSI index and was ranked First in the
professional services industry for the second year in a row.
