ESG ratings
Analysts and investors are referring to companies’ sustainability profiles as well when making their recommendations and decisions. They draw on ESG ratings, among other things, to evaluate a company’s environmental, social and governance performance. At the same time, these ratings are instrumental in determining whether we are meeting our goal in relation to the Group’s strategy, and they are used to establish internal measures.
Volkswagen’s ESG rating from ISS ESG was unchanged at C+ in fiscal year 2024. In the Sustainalytics rating, the Volkswagen Group remained stable with a “medium risk” score. Volkswagen also retained its B rating from MSCI.
