The EcoVadis is a sustainability-assessment organization used by over 100,000 companies across 200 industrial sectors in 175 countries around the world. A company’s sustainability is assessed across four survey categories – the environment, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement – in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiatives, the UN Global Compact, ISO 26000, and other global standards on sustainability. The Company has been conferred a Silver Medal for being one of the top twenty-five percent of all assessed companies.

In response to a request made at a G20 meeting of finance ministers and central bank governors, the TCFD was established by the Financial Stability Board (FSB) in December 2015 to look into disclosures of climate-related information and the responses of financial institutions. In June 2017, the TCFD issued a recommendation to have financial institutions, companies, and governments disclose the impact of climate change in their financial reports. The recommendation of the TCFD was endorsed by the Company in October 2022.
