External validation

 

The following external guidelines and assessment criteria all closely influence the way in which we conduct our business in a responsible way:

United Nations Global Compact

The Global Compact Logo

The United Nations Global Compact is a strategic policy initiative for businesses that are committed to aligning their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. Old Mutual plc joined the UNGC in August 2008 and became a member of the UNGC UK network in March 2009. In April 2010 we reported our first Communication on Progress (COP).

FTSE4Good

FTSE4Good Logo

The FTSE4Good Index series has been designed to measure the performance of companies that meet globally recognised corporate responsibility standards, and to facilitate investment in those companies. Old Mutual plc is a member of the FTSE4Good Index, the selection criteria for which include working towards environmental sustainability, developing positive relationships with stakeholders, and upholding and supporting universal human rights. Transparent management and criteria alongside the FTSE brand make FTSE4Good the index of choice for the creation of Socially Responsible Investment products.

Johannesburg Stock Exchange - Socially Responsible Investment Index

JSE Logo

Old Mutual plc and Nedbank Group Limited have retained their listing on the JSE's Socially Responsible Investment Index. This Index measures participant companies' commitment and performance against a triple bottom line of sustainability in terms of environmental, economic and social impacts.

This year, Old Mutual plc has also been rated a best performer in the low environmental impact category.

The SRI (Socially Responsible Investment) Index further offers an aspirational sustainability benchmark, recognising those listed companies incorporating sustainability principles into their everyday business practices and to serve as a tool for investors to assess companies on a broader base.
