Scorecards

We believe in tracking our performance, as this supports our quality management philosophy and ensures consistent delivery and continuous improvement.

The next few pages outline key scorecards in terms of performance, as well as external awards received. We have reported in line with these scorecards for a number of years to allow readers to evaluate our progress.

  • JSE LIMITED SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT INDEX (SRI) SCORECARD

    The JSE Limited rates companies annually in terms of sustainability measures. Our ratings are listed below:

        F2010*   F2009   F2008  
      Overall result Best performer   Best performer   Best performer  

    The JSE only provides an overall result, not a breakdown.
    * The JSE will only release 2011 ratings in November.

    "The group was rated last year for the third year as a “best performer”. We were also one of the best performers in the high environmental impact category."
