Orient Overseas International Limited (OOIL), the parent company of Orient Overseas Container Line (OOCL) and OOCL Logistics, was continuously selected for inclusion in the Dow Jones Sustainability Asia/Pacific Index, effective from 18 December.
Dow Jones Sustainability Asia/Pacific Index was designed to measure the performance of Asia-Pacific sustainability leaders and is a member of the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI), which is the first sustainability benchmarks available in the market to track the financial performance of the world’s leading companies in terms of environmental, social responsibility and governance (ESG).
Constituents of DJSI were identified by their S&P Global ESG Score, which were calculated using the results of their annual Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA), an integrated assessment of governance & economic, environmental, and social criteria with a strong focus on long-term shareholder value.
Over 13,000 companies were invited to participate in the CSA every year, while only about 3,500 of the largest companies globally are eligible for inclusion in any DJSI.
“OOIL was honored to be included in the Index since its first participation in the CSA assessment last year,” said the company.
