How sustainable we are
Sustainability information is increasingly analysed by investors and the financial market, who look more analytically at the ability of a company to develop sustainable business strategies and plans over time, with measurable objectives and concrete actions that demonstrate the company’s ability to manage risks and exploit the opportunities of changing markets and scenarios.
The resulting ESG ratings help investors identify risks and opportunities linked to sustainability in their investment portfolio.
We are proud that Saipem has been maintaining or improving its positioning in the main ESG ratings, reaching a sector leadership position in most of them and securing inclusion in relevant sustainability indexes.
