BCE is one of only eighteen Canadian companies to be recognized by DJSI for excellence in corporate sustainability for 2006. The DJSI is an investment index which benchmarks corporate leaders in sustainable development. DJSI evaluates the economic, environmental and social performance of companies on the basis of 19 rigorous criteria, including corporate governance, human capital development, customer relationship management, community investment and eco-efficiency.
BCE is part of the FTSE4Good Global Index, an innovative series of real-time indices designed to reflect the performance of socially responsible equities. The series, created and managed by global index provider FTSE Group, covers four markets: UK, Europe, US and Global. Four tradable and four benchmark indices make up the FTSE4Good index series. A committee of independent practitioners in socially responsible investment, (SRI) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) review the indices to ensure that they are an accurate reflection of current CSR best practice.
