  • MOL is now ranked in the top 15% of Upstream & Integrated Oil & Gas companies worldwide in terms of sustainability
  • MOL is the sole emerging European member of the index
  • MOL Group consistently receives strong scores among leading sustainability indices

Budapest, 13 September 2018 – MOL continues to be one of the leaders in sustainability in the Central and Eastern European region. The company has been selected as an index component of the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI) for the third year running.

Following the annual sustainability assessment conducted by Robeco SAM, MOL is now ranked in the top 15% of Upstream & Integrated Oil & Gas companies worldwide based on sustainability performance and is the sole emerging European member of the index.

Since 1999, the DJSI has been tracking the economic, environmental and social performance of listed companies worldwide, and is designed to identify companies that demonstrate strong sustainability practices against internationally recognized standards. The DJSI is based on an in-depth analysis of a company’s sustainability performance on 23 primary criteria and more than 100 secondary criteria across Economic, Environmental and Social dimensions. Hence membership in the DJSI is restricted to corporations judged to be best-in-class.

Given its long-term commitment to sustainable development, MOL is pleased to be continuously recognized as a top Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performer by leading sustainability indices as well as top research and rating agencies, including Dow Jones Sustainability Indices, MSCI, and Sustainalytics. As part of its long-term strategic transformation, MOL aims to further adapt its business to a low carbon world.
