Epson recognised for environmental, social and governance practices for 18th consecutive year

Epson has been recognised for environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives that contribute to social sustainability, for the 18th consecutive year. Selected for inclusion in the FTSE4Good Index Series (a responsible investment (RI) index of FTSE Russell), the company sees this as objective evidence that its efforts to address environmental and social issues are recognised, and that it is seen as a sustainable company.

Epson aspires to achieve sustainability and enrich communities over the long term. In March 2021, the company revised its vision, which guides management, to realign it with this aspirational goal.

The new Epson 25 Renewed corporate vision states that the company will focus particularly on businesses that contribute to the environment, and that it will continue to develop businesses that address such societal issues.

The FTSE4Good Index Series was created by global index provider FTSE Russell and is designed to measure the performance of companies that demonstrate strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices. It is widely used to create and evaluate sustainable investment funds and other financial products.
