INWIT obtains sustainability rating upgrade from ISS ESG
The improvement of the ESG rating to “B-” confirms INWIT as a “Prime” company, a sustainability leader in the digital infrastructure sector
INWIT, the main Italian digital infrastructure company, has obtained an improvement in its ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) sustainability rating from Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), one of the world leaders in the evaluation of ESG factors for responsible investments. The institute supports investors and companies in defining and implementing sustainable policies and in their commitment to responsible investments, offering screening and monitoring solutions for corporate practices to ensure the transparency and sustainability of the activities of portfolio companies.
INWIT’s rating goes from C+ to B-, maintaining its “Prime” status, reserved for companies that excel in ESG performance in their sector. Among the factors that determined the recognition, ISS ESG indicates INWIT’s progress in integrating sustainability principles within its corporate strategy, which concerns not only environmental efficiency, but also social inclusion and responsible governance.
Michelangelo Suigo, Director of External Relations, Communication and Sustainability of INWIT, declared:
“The improvement in ISS’s ESG rating confirms the solidity of our intrinsically sustainable business model. Thanks to digital and shared infrastructures, INWIT is a natural generator of industrial and economic efficiency for customers and of social and environmental efficiency for the territory, local communities and the environment. This upgrade also recognizes the validity of INWIT’s Sustainability Plan and our contribution to reducing the environmental impacts of the business, promoting the well-being and safety of employees and a governance system aimed at sustainable success”.
The recognition by ISS ESG not only represents an important milestone, but represents an incentive for INWIT to continue the path undertaken towards increasingly responsible and sustainable corporate management. Thanks to its ability to develop shared digital infrastructures, INWIT positions itself as a key player in the ecological transition and in the promotion of a more inclusive economy, helping to reduce environmental impact and supporting economic growth that is attentive to collective well-being.
