TF1 GROUP RANKS 5TH IN DOW JONES SUSTAINABILITY INDEX

The TF1 group has confirmed its position in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI), the benchmark for measuring corporate performance based on environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria.                       

The TF1 group is very proud to take 5th place in the DJSI rankings for the second consecutive year in 2020, and to be the only French company in the top 10. The rankings cover 68 media and entertainment companies including Lagardère, Publicis and Dentsu. The Group thereby qualifies as a member of the DJSI World and DJSI Europe indices.

This distinction is testimony to our very strong engagement in this field. For over 15 years, we have been pursuing a proactive CSR* policy, helping to build a more responsible broadcasting market.

Launched in 1999, the DJSI was one of the very first global indices to track the sustainability performance of the world’s biggest and most important listed companies. The DJSI World, for example, consists of global sustainability leaders, rated on the basis of long-term economic and ESG criteria.

Gilles Pélisson, Chairman & CEO of the TF1 group: “Our ambition at TF1 is to positively inspire society. So I would like to thank and congratulate our teams, who work hard every day to make this ambition a reality. It is their unflagging commitment that underpins this fine achievement, of which we are all very proud.”

Manjit Jus, Global Head of ESG Research and Data, S&P Global: “We congratulate TF1 Group for being included in the DJSI World and DJSI Europe. A DJSI distinction is a reflection of being a sustainability leader in your industry. With a record number of companies participating in the 2020 Corporate Sustainability Assessment and more stringent rules for inclusion this year, this sets your company apart and rewards your continued commitment to people and planet."
