Our ESG approach

Sustainability at the centre of our Strategy

Inspired by our Purpose to enable people to shape a safer and more sustainable future by caring for their lives and dreams, we view Sustainability as a long-term journey to fulfil our ambition of being a good corporate citizen and creating long-term value for our stakeholders. We are committed to integrating Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) considerations in all our activities focusing on two pillars: our core business and the community in which we operate.
Within our current Lifetime partner 24: Driving Growth strategy, Sustainability has a central role, with specific goals referring to our underwriting and investment activities in addition to our flagship initiative in the community, The Human Safety Net.

For a number of years, we have been implementing the Responsible Investment Guideline, which filters our investments according to Sustainability criteria, also called ESG criteria. Our Group applies these ESG criteria also in the insurance activity: our Responsible Underwriting Guideline outlines principles and rules aimed at assessing prospective and insured clients in the P&C underwriting process.


Generali’s Investor & ESG Relations activity contributes to the Group’s Sustainability ambitions by fostering a transparent dialogue with its investors, in particular with those with a strong focus on ESG. We would like to invite you to browse the following information to find out more details:
