Outokumpu Retains Position in DJSI STOXX, Joins DJSI World
09/13/2007 - Outokumpu will retain its position in the most recent Pan-European Dow Jones STOXX Sustainability Index, and has also been accepted for the first time to the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index.
Following the latest global analysis of corporate sustainability leadership, Outokumpu learned that it would retain its position in the Pan-European Dow Jones STOXX Sustainability Index (DJSI STOXX). Outokumpu was also accepted for the first time to the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World).
“Outokumpu is committed to corporate responsibility with the aim to have all the three aspects—environmental, economic and social—in balance,” said Juha Rantanen, CEO of Outokumpu. “I'm delighted that our efforts in sustainable development are recognized by SAM with awarding Outokumpu the membership in the two Dow Jones sustainability indexes."
The Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes follow a best-in-class approach, highlighting the sustainability leaders from each industry on a global and regional level. The annual review of the DJSI family is based on a thorough analysis of corporate economic, environmental and social performance, assessing issues such as corporate governance, risk management, branding, climate change, supply chain standards and labor practices. Half of the assessment measures general sustainability criteria, and half relates to industry specific sustainability issues.
