The new edition of the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook has been unveiled, and for the fifth consecutive year, Lagardère Group has been recognized in this annual ranking that rewards the best performing companies in terms of environmental, social and governance (ESG).

To be listed in the Yearbook, companies must score within the top 15% of their industry and must achieve an S&P Global Sustainability Score within 30% of their industry’s top-performing company. For this 2023 edition, more than 7,800 companies in 61 industries were assessed and only 708 were selected for inclusion in the ranking. Lagardère’s rating has been further improved for 2022 with a percentile ranking within its sector of 97/100, compared to 93/100 in 2021.

Arnaud Lagardère, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lagardère SA, said in a press release, “We are honoured by this international recognition, which once again acknowledges the ongoing efforts of all our teams to achieve some of the highest ESG standards in our industry. Fully integrated into the Group’s strategy and value-creating, our CSR policy serves sustainable and inclusive growth.”

Lagardère Group’s extra-financial performance has been recognised by leading ESG rating agencies such as Vigeo Eiris and Sustainalytics, reflecting its commitment over many years.
