| dc.description | The four Principles for Sustainable Insurance, including a list of possible actions, provide a
common aspiration and global framework for the insurance industry to manage ESG issues,
and to strengthen its contribution to building resilient, inclusive and sustainable communities
and economies.
This document is a result of a multi-year PSI initiative to develop the first global guide to
manage ESG risks in risk assessment and insurance underwriting. It has an initial focus on
non-life insurance business—also known as property and casualty insurance business.
This guide goes to the heart of implementing the Principles for Sustainable Insurance,
particularly Principle 1: “We will embed in our decision-making environmental, social and
governance issues relevant to our insurance business”. It builds on studies since 2007 on
the relevance of ESG issues to the insurance business that led to the development of the
PSI, and subsequent studies and activities after the PSI was launched in 2012. | en_US |
