Our Commitments

We seek to add value not only to our customers and investors but also to consider a broader range of stakeholders, including society as a whole. We actively seek to improve how our business impacts people, the environment and animals. We have tangible sustainability commitments across our business and aim to contribute to the achievement of a number of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Underwriting

• Implement ESG underwriting policies through our underwriting process
• Measure and improve over time the ESG profile of our underwriting portfolio (e.g. alignment with the EU Taxonomy)

Operations

• Monitor our carbon footprint and reduce it from 2023 onwards on a per employee basis
• Continue to offset more than 100% of our operational emissions

Diversity & Inclusion

• Target equal opportunities across all stages of hiring process
• Measure pay gaps and seek to minimise these where reasonably possible
• Insofar as possible, ensure the composition of our workforce reflects the make-up of the local community (by gender and ethnicity)

Disclosure

• Provide annual updates on key metrics and performance, with disclosure according to a recognised industry standard (ClimateWise)

All of the above are contributions to SDGs
