As featured in the Walmart Global Responsibility Report 2017 : Over the past 30 years, global prosperity has increased by many measures. Life expectancy, school enrollment and access to drinking water are up and technology has opened new doors for billions of people. Yet at the same time this progress occurs, growing population, globalization and technological disruption have created new social and environmental challenges.
Our founder’s ethos of “If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it” is at the core of everything we do. In 2013, we announced 2020 Targets; we summarize our progress over the past four years.
Bloomberg Brief’s weekly newsletter on sustainable finance provides actionable insights for investors following sustainable, responsible and impact investment strategies. In each issue, you’ll see coverage of funds and investment strategies, as well as up-to-the-minute news on major trends, including green and social bond markets, sustainability reporting, corporate social responsibility, corporate governance and employee engagement and diversity.
Aggressive recycling and composting, along with utilization of waste-to-energy, have driven our waste reduction/diversion success. Bloomberg currently diverts 75% of its total waste away from landfills and is targeting 90% diversion by 2020.
Bloomberg is committed to developing inclusive leaders and integrating diversity & inclusion principles into all leadership development curricula. We provide tools on how to minimize bias in the workplace and host educational sessions on being an authentic leader, managing across differences and executive presence.
Bloomberg has always believed that bringing transparency to financial markets through access to information can increase capital flows, produce economic growth and create efficiencies for businesses. This idea revolutionized the bond markets in 1981, and, since then, we have expanded our efforts across asset classes to equities, derivatives, commodities and the broader financial markets.
2017 will be remembered as the year that corporate social responsibility (CSR) was once again redefined. Although CSR will always be grounded in business operations, the stakes have gotten a lot higher. Companies must now share not only what they stand for, but what they stand up for.
