Awards 

Dexia Asset Management's leadership on the SRI market and its high-quality sustainability analyses have been recognized by the outside world.

An overview of the main awards received in the past years :

The New Economy's Sustainable Finance Awards reward the new banking elite and leading financial institutions whose vision and enterprise have shaped the landscape of sustainable finance. These companies demonstrate commitment in both developed and emerging markets, making sustainability a core part of their business.

An jury selected by The New Economy shortlisted Dexia Asset Management and it was up to the readership of the global magazine to select the winner.

In the January 2011 edition of The New Economy it was announced that Dexia Asset Management received the award of Best Sustainable Financial Institution (France).

 

 
Novethic, the leading French research centre on Sustainable and Responsible Investment (SRI), has awarded its SRI labels to 18 of Dexia Asset Management’s (Dexia AM) investment products, across their SRI fund range.

Novethic launched this label for the first time in 2009 with the aim to increase and enhance the quality of SRI communication by promoting sound, transparent and comprehensive SRI disclosure. Out of 121 funds participating to this first label-entitlement, 92 have been granted the label.
