Lincoln Financial Group (NYSE: LNC) today announced that the

This year, Lincoln Financial ranked in the top quartile among
North American insurance companies in several categories in the

Climate Strategy and Talent Attraction and Retention.
“We are so proud to be recognized by the prestigious Dow Jones
Sustainability Index for North America for the seventh consecutive

Financial Group. “At Lincoln, we continue to set ambitious goals
and hold ourselves accountable to operating with a

Lincoln Financial is committed to being a leader in
environmental, social and governance issues and continues to build
transparency through evolving public disclosure. Inclusion on the
DJSI recognizes Lincoln’s leadership in the life insurance sector
and confirmation of the company’s responsible business practices,
achievement of environmental targets and strong support of employee
development and wellness.
Additionally, Lincoln Financial remains committed to reducing
its environmental impact in line with evolving best practices and
scientific frameworks. Lincoln Financial reduced its emissions by
38% based on a 2019 baseline, exceeding its target set in 2020 to
reduce emissions by 25% by 20251.
Originally launched in 1999, the Dow Jones Sustainability
Indices (DJSI) comprises the most widely recognized global
sustainability indices. Created jointly by S&P Dow Jones
Indices and RobescoSAM, the DJSI criteria integrate an assessment
of economic, environmental, and social practices within large,
publicly traded companies. Companies are invited to participate in
the DJSI Corporate Sustainability Assessment on a yearly basis,
with only the most sustainable market caps per industry – based on
their sustainability scores — selected for final inclusion on the
index.
