AXA received the highest score in the insurance industry in the 2022 edition of the Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA), an S&P Global assessment of corporate sustainability performance. With a score of 91/100 (as of November 18, 2022), up 4 points from 2021, AXA achieved its highest score since the inception of the study. In detail, AXA has obtained a score of 94/100 on social, 91/100 on governance & economy, and 82/100 on environment.

In addition, for the 16th consecutive year, AXA is included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI), an index used by investors to identify leading companies in the field of sustainable development. Only the highest-ranked companies in the CSA meeting several additional criteria set by S&P Global, are eligible for inclusion in the DJSI.

Performance in the DJSI is one of the seven indicators of the AXA Progress Index, a tool launched in 2021 by the Group to track its progress on sustainable and responsible development. Several KPIs included in this index are taken into account in the remuneration of the Group's executives and nearly 5,000 employees.
