DIC Corporation has been selected for the seventh consecutive year for inclusion in the FTSE4Good Index Series, a globally recognized benchmark for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investment.

The company has also once again been named a constituent of the FTSE Blossom Japan Index and the FTSE Blossom Japan Sector Relative Index, both of which are used by Japan’s Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF)—one of the world’s largest pension funds—as benchmarks for its ESG investment strategy.

Developed by UK–based global index provider FTSE Russell, part of London Stock Exchange Group plc, the FTSE4Good Index Series measures the performance of companies demonstrating outstanding ESG practices using a model comprising multiple themes categorized into three pillars: Environmental, Social and Governance.

In addition to the FTSE Blossom Japan Index and the FTSE Blossom Japan Sector Relative Index, DIC has also been selected for inclusion in three others major ESG investment indices adopted by the GPIF:

・MSCI Japan ESG Select Leaders Index

・S&P/JPX Carbon Efficient Index

・Morningstar Japan ex-REIT Gender Diversity Tilt Index

Each of these indices evaluates companies from a different ESG perspective, underscoring the broad-based recognition of DIC’s ESG initiatives.
