Fuji Oil Holdings has been selected as constituent of FTSE4GOOD Index Series and FTSE Blossom Japan Index

Fuji Oil Holdings selected as a constituent of “FTSE4GOOD Index Series*1” and “ FTSE Blossom Japan Index*2”, an international ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) investment index for the first time.

In recent years, with the aim of achieving the SDGs, ESG investments that reflect ESG factors in the investment process have been accelerating, and various investment indices are being used as criteria for investors to select investment targets. “ FTSE 4GOOD Index Series” and “FTSE Blossom Japan Index” were created by FTSE Russell in the U.K. to measure the performance of companies with strong ESG practices. “FTSE Blossom Japan Index” has also been adopted as a stock price index for ESG investment by the Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF), the world's largest public pension fund.

With this selection, we have been included in all four of the GPIF indices, including ” MSCI Japan ESG Select Leaders Index”, “MSCI Japan Women in Action (WIN) Index”, and “ S&P/JPX Carbon Efficient Index”, which have already been selected.

The Fuji Oil Group is promoting "ESG management" that pursues both the sustainable growth and the realization of a sustainable society through the solution of social issues through our business. We will continue to enhance our corporate value by aiming for the realization of a sustainable society.
