The prestigious DJSI tracks the financial performance of the leading sustainability-driven companies worldwide, organisations that combine business success with an ethical, caring and responsible approach across a variety of areas including economic, environmental and social criteria.

Strong evidence exists to show that organisations that adopt a more 'sustainable' approach to business enjoy positive benefits. Financial organisations such as Dow Jones have found that companies with a strong commitment and performance on corporate sustainability have enjoyed greater levels of profitability than similar companies who lack such a commitment.
