On January 14, 2013 BM&FBOVESPA released the English-language edition of a study about its Corporate Sustainability Index ISE.
The study, entitled “The Value of ISE,” describes “the tangible and intangible gains for companies that are part of the ISE.” It was conducted by the Center for Sustainability Studies (GVces), Business Administration School, Getulio Vargas Foundation (FGV-EAESP ), which worked with BM&FBOVESPA to develop the index and remains engaged in the development of the index.
According to BM&VBOVESPA, “Since its launch at the end of 2005, BM&VBOVESPA’s Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE) has proved to be an important factor in encouraging companies to adopt a business model that contributes towards sustainable development.”
