SIBUR becomes one of the leaders in the ESG index of Russian companies

NCR Rating Agency and RBC published the ESG Index of Russian companies. SIBUR was assigned the first – highest – category in the ranking.

Andrey Piskunov, 
Managing Director of NCR Rating Agency:

“Once again SIBUR has joined the group leading the ESG Index. This year, our methodology was streamlined based on the takeaways from the last year. For non-financial companies, the weight of the environmental component is aligned with a company's environmental impact. The component factors in its efforts to protect the environment, investments in environmental projects, and environmental technologies. Being part of the index enables companies to emphasise their commitment to ESG principles and show that they are open to all stakeholders.”

Maxim Remchukov,
Sustainable Development Director at SIBUR:

“Leadership in the ESG Index shows that SIBUR is not slowing down its sustainability efforts. This spring, we updated our Sustainability Strategy as we delivered on some of our goals ahead of the schedule, particularly, mitigating the environmental impact of our production facilities. We made additional commitments, with all assets of the combined company taken into account. All key results, including quantitative metrics, are publicly available online in our integrated annual report. Our Board of Directors monitors progress on the strategy – yet another evidence that it is a high priority for shareholders.”
