Moneysupermarket.com Group PLC added to the FTSE4Good index
13/05/2009
moneysupermarket.com Group PLC has met the corporate responsibility inclusion criteria for the FTSE4Good index, the leading global responsible investment index, and has therefore now been added as a new member. This was confirmed by the FTSE4Good Policy Committee at its March 2009 FTSE4Good index review.
Employees, customers and investors are increasingly concerned with the management of social and environmental risks in their portfolios, and membership of the FTSE4Good Index sends a powerful message about moneysupermarket.com's commitment to responsible business practice. The FTSE4Good inclusion criteria cover a number of corporate responsibility themes including environmental management, climate change, human and labour rights, countering bribery and supply chain labour standards. As a constituent of the FTSE4Good Index, moneysupermarket.com is demonstrating that it has the policies and management systems in place to help address relevant corporate responsibility risks.
Peter Plumb, chief executive officer of moneysupermarket.com commented: "We are delighted to be included in the FTSE4Good index. We are committed to running a responsible business and it is great to have this recognised."
