EcoVadis gold medal for sustainability

For the third time in a row, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management has been awarded the gold medal in the EcoVadis sustainability rating being among the top five percent of the more than 150.000 companies and institutions assessed by EcoVadis worldwide. The annual assessment covers sustainability criteria in four categories: environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. Frankfurt School improved in all four categories compared to last year's rating.

"We have further developed our compliance system and governance structures with new and updated guidelines and training courses, not least on data security and the responsible use of AI. These measures have contributed significantly to our improvement in all rating categories. Other reasons include more detailed reporting on the carbon footprint and energy consumption of campus operations, impact reports on diverse areas, and Frankfurt School's comprehensive reporting in accordance with the German Sustainability Code."

Claudia Bieber, Director Accreditations & Corporate Excellence
