Evonik included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices World and Europe
for the first time
Essen. Evonik has been included in the prestigious "Dow Jones
Sustainability Index (DJSI) World" and also "DJSI Europe" for the first
time. The specialty chemicals company gained particularly high ratings in
all environmental criteria.
Thomas Wessel, the Executive Board member responsible for sustainability:
"Being included in the DJSI indices World and Europe is an important
milestone for us. We are delighted by this acknowledgement of Evonik's
commitment to sustainability. It affirms that contributions to
sustainability and economic success are working hand in hand.
Sustainability is increasingly driving innovation and profitable growth."
Alongside financial criteria, investors increasingly include ecological and
social factors in their investment decisions. They
are guided by leading sustainability indices such as the DJSI. Every year
around 2,500 companies worldwide are invited to participate. In each sector
the best of the participating companies are included in the DJSI. The
assessment is performed by the Swiss rating agency RobecoSAM.
In January 2016, RobecoSAM included Evonik in its yearbook of economic,
social and ecological performance as a "Sustainability Leader" with the
distinction "Silver Class".
Evonik is also well-positioned in other sustainability ratings and
rankings. For example, it is included in the FTSE4Good Global, STOXX(R)
Global ESG Leaders, and Euronext Vigeo Eurozone 120 stock market indices
for responsible investment. The Sustainalytics and Oekom Research rating
agencies rank Evonik among the leaders in its sector in terms of
sustainability performance. In 2015 the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)
gave Evonik the very high score of 98/B. At the beginning of 2016 Evonik
was awarded the Gold rating by EcoVadis for its sustainability performance
for the third time in succession. EcoVadis is the partner of "Together for
Sustainability", an initiative by chemical companies to drive forward
transparency and sustainability in the supply chain.
