BASF features in Dow Jones Sustainability Index once again
BASF has been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World) again this year. The company received special recognition by the analysts involved for its risk and crisis management, environmental policy and reporting and climate strategy.
The DJSI World represents the top 10% of the largest 2,500 companies in each industry included in the Dow Jones Global Index. The listed companies are considered to demonstrate continuous improvement every year with regard to sustainability and are assessed by analysts from the Sustainable Asset Management Group (SAM), which evaluates economic, environmental and social criteria.
“We are very pleased that BASF is again listed in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index”, said Eckhard Koch, vice president BASF Sustainability Center. “Sustainability is our strategic approach to integrate social and ecological issues in our business processes and ensure long term economic success; for us and for our customers.”
