Because our future starts today

Sustainability at ERGO

Insurance is a long-term business, which is why we at ERGO always have the future in mind. We operate responsibly and integrate sustainability criteria into our operations, our products, and our investment activities. Join us in looking ahead and learn how ERGO incorporates sustainability criteria into its fields of action.

Our fields of action

Responsible business practices

In our business, the environment we work in is becoming ever more complex and new risks are arising all the time. Digitalisation and the impact of climate change present particular challenges, but also open up new business opportunities.

Employees

Active promotion of our employees, creating scope for getting the work-life balance right and protecting their health enables us to empower diversity within our Company. This potential forms a valuable platform for our success.

Environment protection in day-to-day business

For many years now, ERGO and its Group companies have considered protecting the environment an integral element of their corporate social responsibility. We are constantly working to avoid or reduce emissions from our business operations.

Engagement

As a company acutely aware of its social responsibility, we want to make tangible contributions to resolving problems in society. We do this by helping people on the ground in a number of countries, working with a wide range of issues.

Corporate Governance

ERGO places great value on good corporate governance and an effective compliance system. Find out here how ERGO adheres to statutory and company regulations and minimises risks.

Joint implementation of sustainability goals

As part of the Munich Re Group, ERGO is included in the non-financial statement in the Munich Re Group Annual Report and hence exempted from issuing its own non-financial statement.

The basis of our actions

Respecting and protecting human rights

ERGO is expressly committed to respecting and upholding human rights in accordance with international standards. We take our corresponding due diligence obligations seriously and have established processes to identify possible risks of human rights being impaired and to manage them with appropriate measures.

Sustainability made transparent

EU Disclosure Regulation

Transparency about aspects of the sustainability of our products and the underlying investment decision-making processes – also in the context of investment and insurance consulting – is of particular concern to us. In accordance with EU Disclosure Regulation, we have therefore summarised all the necessary information for our clients.

Wrapping up World Cleanup Day: Unexpected finds and impressive results 🌍

A wedding ring, a set of dentures and an old guitar are not what you expect to find in the grass of a city park. Yet these were some of the more surprising items ERGO colleagues picked up during World Cleanup Day – alongside the less dramatic, but far more common, cigarette butts, bottle caps and fragments of plastic that quietly accumulate in our shared spaces. 💍😶

This year, more than 5,100 ERGO volunteers in 19 markets joined local clean‑up activities, filling over 2,400 bags of rubbish in parks, on beaches, in city centres and mountain paths. The day was as much about looking at what we throw away as it was about collecting it – and about reflecting on the habits behind that waste.

Last week, colleagues from ERGO’s international branches gathered in Madrid for our first “Prompt2Impact – ERGO International AI Hackaprompt”. The aim: to develop AI solutions in cross-border teams and then scale them up.

The event was initiated and sponsored by Dr. Anne Dreller, Dr. Dirk Christoph Schautes and Theo Kokkalas, members of the Executive Board of ERGO International AG. A jury of international CIOs assessed the solutions developed.

We asked Anne Dreller how AI will change the way ERGO International works and how such a “Hackaprompt” can support this. You can find the interview in our magazine //radar: https://lnkd.in/ebpHq8_s
