This rates the Company not only on its financial performance but also on its attitude toward the environment, respect for social values, societal commitment and corporate governance. Each area analyzed produces a rating based on different criteria (transparency, innovation, communication, etc. ) and is weighted to obtain a final rating. This serves as a reference for fund managers and investors who wish to invest in companies which are successful in terms of social responsibility. Some of these rating agencies have developed, most of the time in partnership with providers of equity indexes, some specific indexes composed of the top-rated companies for environmental, social or governance (ESG) aspects. Groupe Renault is evaluated each year by the main international extra-financial rating agencies on the basis of its public and declarative information. These agencies generally reserve access to the results of their assessments for their own clients.
