Milan, 12 December 2023 – Nexi, the European PayTech leader, joins the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World) and the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe, confirming its position as one of the world’s top sustainability companies.
The sustainability indices of Standard & Poor’s (S&P) Global, the world’s leading rating, benchmarking and analysis company, have been distributed since 1999. They determine a ranking of the top performing listed companies based on long-term environmental, social and governance sustainability criteria. Specifically, the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index tracks the performance of the top 10 per cent of the approximately 2,500 largest listed companies within the S&P Global Broad Market Index (BMI). The Dow Jones Sustainability Europe Index tracks the performance of the top 20 per cent of the approximately 600 largest European listed companies. The assessment, based on the results of the Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment by S&P Global, the leading global benchmark in sustainability, determines the companies to be included in the prestigious DJSI indices.
In 2023, Nexi scored 65/100 in the S&P CSA in the Diversified Financial Services segment.
“Inclusion in both the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index and the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe is a source of great pride for us. It testifies Nexi’s ongoing commitment to integrating environmental, social and governance issues into its business strategy and to moving forward with the implementation of the actions relevant to the achievement of the company’s ESG objectives,” comments Paolo Bertoluzzo, CEO of Nexi Group. “This important milestone also provides confirmation of the effectiveness of our approach in sustainability policies applied across the Group.”
