S&P Global announces sustainability assessment score for ABN AMRO

The assessment also helps us to highlight where ABN AMRO can further improve its performance, and to plot a course to achieve its goals. Boasting high scores in areas like Human Rights and Operational Eco-efficiency, the bank still sees scope to improve its results in the Decarbonisation Strategy and Occupational Health & Safety categories, for instance. There was a 13-point difference between ABN AMRO and the sector leader. The bank scored 76 points in 2021.

Corporate sustainability assessment

Each year, S&P Global assesses thousands of international companies on their economic, social and environmental policies. Governance factors are also taken into account. S&P Global then uses these scores to determine whether to include them in the DJSI and the Sustainability Yearbook, scheduled for publication in February 2023.

An important indicator

The DJSI ranking gives investors and other stakeholders a key tool for insight into ABN AMRO’s sustainability efforts. But it’s also an important indicator for the bank itself. ABN AMRO aims to secure a score within 5 percent of the highest score in its sector.
