Voluntary involvement in sustainability reporting on the Istanbul Stock Exchange

The Istanbul Stock Exchange and the Business Council for Sustainable Development-Turkey launched the Istanbul Stock Exchange Sustainability Index. The aim of the project is to review listed companies on the Istanbul Stock Exchange on the basis of their management of sustainability issues and to create an index that will demonstrate the leadership of listed Turkish companies.

The Istanbul Stock Exchange Sustainability Index seeks to provide a competitive advantage for leading Turkish companies by raising the profile of sustainability leaders. The project will develop an index of companies listed on the Istanbul Stock Exchange to act as a benchmark encouraging and enabling major companies in Turkey to compete successfully in a world where corporate environmental and social governance performance is necessary for long-term success.

The Istanbul Stock Exchange Sustainability Index is a multi- stakeholder project developing best practices with the goal of launching a Turkish sustainability benchmark for Istanbul Stock Exchange-listed companies and their investors.
