      We care about our future. We understand that we must always consider the consequences that today’s actions could have on tomorrow.

      Driving change for a sustainable future

      Sustainability is about how we do business. We have integrated sustainability across the Group’s strategy, both globally and locally. As an advocate, adviser and role model, we want to empower individuals and organizations to act today and create a better tomorrow.

      We aspire to be one of the most responsible and impactful businesses in the world. Risks are becoming more complex and interconnected as a result of climate change, globalization, urbanization and technological development. Insurers are increasingly expected to use their core capabilities to help communities and society become more resilient to these interconnected risks.

      We endeavor to work with our colleagues, customers, brokers and other distribution partners as well as suppliers and investee companies to foster responsible and sustainable business practices, while promoting industry-leading practices in managing environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks. We want to be advocates, advisors and role models for a thriving future.

      We strive to develop relevant products and services that can help address some of today’s most pressing societal and environmental issues.

      We have identified three focus areas to scale our impact and our role in society:

      Planet

      We will focus on achieving net-zero outcomes, while also helping to improve the resilience of our planet and society.

      Customer

      Working closely with our customers, we will grow solutions that support customers’ transition to a net-zero future, while also encouraging people to adopt more sustainable lifestyles, enabling them to thrive today and flourish tomorrow.

      People

      As a global employer and provider of protection solutions to millions of people, we are actively supporting our people to remain employable for the long-term, while addressing customer and societal needs.
