AVIVA set up the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Coalition which includes financial institutions, NGOs, investors and professional bodies to promote long-term value by “incorporating long-term sustainability considerations into their business strategy and by fully disclosing their progress to investors”. In 2012 at the Rio + 20 Earth Summit the CSRC led calls for an international framework on non-financial reporting which led to formal recognition of the importance of corporate sustainability reporting by the UN.
Aviva also produced a pdf report:
A Roadmap for Sustainable Capital Markets: How can the UN Sustainable Development Goals harness the global capital markets? In its forward, the Chief Executive also calls on “policy makers to address the key sustainability challenges within our capital markets and the broader economy. Government inaction in this area will reduce the wellbeing of current and future generations.”
