Our focus on corporate responsibility
“This year we’ve revised our strategy to sharpen our focus on embedding sustainability in everything we do. We’re proud of how far we’ve come over the past 10 years – but we know that there is more to do.”
Marie Sigsworth, group corporate responsibility director, Aviva
Our corporate responsibility (CR) strategy is aligned with our core purpose, to provide prosperity and peace of mind for our customers. It is helping us to innovate and meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world.
Strategy
For more than a decade, strong partnerships and collaborations have been an important part of our CR approach. This year, we worked with our stakeholders to help us take the next steps on our journey – focusing on core issues and further integrating the CR programme within our business strategy.
What are we doing?
We have set ourselves high ambitions. Our stretching targets on climate change have led to new, more efficient ways of doing business. The many benefits to our customers include paperless processes and a range of more sustainable products and services.
Performance
- Revised our CR strategy to take account of material risks and issues, and our impact on society
- Working with our auditors Ernst & Young to provide increased scrutiny of CR reporting
- Extended the scope of our reporting to include additional subsidiary companies and expanded measurement of community investment
