Programme updates
Aviva maintains FTSE4Good listing
Date: 18 Jun 2008
Aviva has continued to be included in the FTSE4Good Index Series after the most recent half-yearly review. As a result of the March review, 41 companies were added and 15 were deleted.
The FTSE4Good index measures the performance of companies that meet globally-recognised standards on corporate social responsibility.
It is a tool for socially-responsible investors that helps them to benchmark companies on their corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance and contributes to the development of responsible business practice around the world.
The FTSE4Good inclusion criteria evolve over time, demanding continued improvement in corporate social responsibility practices in order to gain or maintain inclusion in the index.
The FTSE's in-house Responsible Investment Unit undertakes an extensive global engagement program with all FTSE4Good companies affected by new criteria requirements.
