From the results of the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and the evaluation of the financial, environmental and social dimensions of 2473 companies, the RobecoSAM Sustainability Yearbook included a select group of 867 companies on its report, among which ISA is a leader in the Electrical Utility Service Sector.
The RobecoSAM report rates in an independent manner the companies that participate in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index, in which ISA, in 2016, obtained a maximum rating in the Biodiversity and Energy Transmission categories, and the highest score in the industry for Information Security and Cyber Security.
The companies that have been included in the Yearbook should analyze a timely management in the identification of risks arising from their activity, respond to global sustainability trends; and deviate to the political, financial and technical changes of the business environment, a commitment undertaken by ISA.

For ISA, sustainability is a business approach that enables the company to manage opportunities, impacts and economic, environmental and social risks in a responsible, transparent and ethical way, in order to create value for its stakeholders, keep its competitive advantage and contribute to the development of the communities where it operates.
