Meet Ariel Meyerstein, Citi @ Demystifying The CSA & DJSI Workshop

Ariel Meyerstein, Senior Vice President, Corporate Sustainability Program, Citi is speaking at Demystifying the Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) & The Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI). This practitioner workshop is presented by Governance & Accountability Institute in collaboration RobecoSAM on October 24, 2017 and is being hosted at Baruch College/CUNY in New York City.  Ariel will be focusing on assessment questions for Human Rights.

MEET ONE OF THE SPEAKERS: ARIEL MEYERSTEIN
Senior Vice President, Corporate Sustainability, Citi
TOPIC: Workshop 1: Human Rights

A conversation with Ariel:

Q:  What is your involvement and experience at Citi in completing the RobecoSAM CSA for the DJSI each year? 

As the newest edition to Citi’s Sustainability Team, joining in March 2017, I’ve been involved in Citi’s most recent RobecoSAM CSA filing for 2017, but my colleagues on the Sustainability team have long had lead ownership over preparing our overall response and gathering information from dozens of functions across our global company, garnering us a spot on the DJSI World and DJSI North American indices for 17 straight years. Our team also co-leads development of our annual Global Citizenship Report, which summarizes the ways in which Citi enables progress in the cities and communities where we live and work. I manage our reputational risks for human rights and other sustainability issues, so I focus on our CSA responses to the human rights-related questions, parallel sections of the Citizenship Report and various other external stakeholders.

Q:  What can attendees expect to learn from your session on Human Rights?

We’ll discuss how Citi supports human rights across our entire value chain – for our employees, suppliers, clients and communities in all the countries where we do business. This is a complex and rapidly evolving space that requires us to refine our approach to human rights based on a number of factors. Citi is determined to finding and eliminating human rights violations across our company, supply chain and anyplace else we can influence the human rights agenda.

We also recognize that partnering with our industry and more broadly is critical to improving businesses’ collective approach to preserving human rights. Citi is a founding member of the Equator Principles, a member of Shift’s Business Learning Program, and the first U.S. bank to report to the UN Guiding Principles Reporting Framework.

Q:  What advice do you have or opportunity that you see for attendees who are considering attending the program and looking to improve their RobecoSAM CSA responses, and get on the DJSI? 

Corporate responsibility efforts, particularly on social issues like human rights and labor, are never complete, particularly as regulatory initiatives continue to proliferate and expectations around action and transparency continue to rise.  As companies work on these issues, we all struggle with how much of our internal story to disclose, particularly for efforts that are always ‘in progress’ or where results are uneven because the issues are challenging. So the trick is to keep tabs on developments, expectations and best practices and find ways to get comfortable with being increasingly transparent about your progress and your challenges so that stakeholders can have greater appreciation for all the hard work you do.

Topic: Workshop 3: Supply Chain

A conversation with Jocelyn:

Q:  What is your involvement and experience at Intel Corporation in completing the RobecoSAM CSA for the DJSI each year? 

For the past 6 years, my team and I have owned completion of the Supply Chain section of the CSA. We analyze, synthesize and consolidate data from various sources and collaborate across internal stakeholders to ensure the most complete story in the application. We also own the SC section in Intel’s CSR Report.

Q:  What can attendees expect to learn from your session on Supply Chain?

  • Insight on how Intel has evolved our Supply Chain Sustainability Program over the past decade and how we’ve integrated Sustainability into our standard supply chain processes.
  • How we’ve leveraged Industry Associations like the EICC to create and proliferate standards and achieve the greatest possible reach across our global Supply Chain.
  • What some of the key focus areas of our program are (e.g., Forced and Bonded Labor, Conflict Minerals, Supplier Diversity) and how we measure them.
  • How our Supplier Capability Building Program supports and enables supplier performance improvement. 

Q:  What advice do you have or opportunity that you see for attendees who are considering attending the program and looking to improve their RobecoSAM CSA responses, and get on the DJSI? 

Build strong relationships internally with others in your company that work on the different programs comprehended in the CSA. Determine an overall lead as well as clear ownership for the various sections to ensure you are able to provide the most complete picture with all relevant data. Have a strong multi-stakeholder sensing process in place to ensure you comprehend the various, ever-changing and increasing priorities (including DJSI); this will enable you to stay ahead of emerging issues and be proactive versus being completely reactive and potentially losing points.

Meet Robert Dornau, RobecoSAM @ Demystifying The CSA & DJSI Workshop

Robert Dornau, Director, Senior Manager Sustainability Services, RobecoSAM is speaking at Demystifying the Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) & The Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI). This practitioner workshop is presented by Governance & Accountability Institute in collaboration RobecoSAM on October 24, 2017 and is being hosted at Baruch College/CUNY in New York City.  Robert will be focusing on assessment questions for Human Rights, Human Capital & Supply Chain as well as providing results, and learnings of the DJSI 2017.

MEET ONE OF THE SPEAKERS: ROBERT DORNAU
Director, Senior Manager Sustainability Services, RobecoSAM
Topic:
Workshop 1: Human Rights; Workshop 2: Human Capital; Workshop 3: Supply Chain

A conversation with Robert:

Q:  What is your involvement and experience with RobecoSAM’s CSA for the DJSI? 

I am a director in RobecoSAM’s Sustainability Services business. We leverage the unique CSA database and provide benchmarking services to companies. In this role I have looked at the environmental performance of hundreds of CSA participating companies in detail and helped them understand RobecoSAM’s CSA methodology and the rational and scoring methodology for the questions we ask. It is important to know that my department is not involved in the CSA scoring process.

Q:  What can attendees expect to learn from your presentations?

For all of the focus areas in this workshop I will present RobecoSAM’s rational, the approach we expect companies to take when they address these areas, the performance indicators that we measure and our assessment methodology, and the link we see to business value drivers (Risk profile, growth, profitability). I will also present statistical analysis on the results of the 2017 assessment in the focus area. Based on that the areas most companies struggle with will be identified and discussed in more detail.

Q:  What advice do you have or opportunity that you see for attendees who are considering attending the program and looking to improve their RobecoSAM CSA responses, and get on the DJSI? 

The basis to improve your performance in RobecoSAM’s CSA is an improvement of your underlying sustainability performance. This workshop will help you better understand RobecoSAM’s rational and expectations in the focus areas covered. The better you understand the requirements, the more focused your answers to the assessment can be. A better understanding of the CSA approach also helps you find the arguments internally to improve e.g. your companies processes and transparency in certain areas. The value of participating in the CSA goes clearly beyond inclusion in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices. By definition only a small number of companies can make it into the index. The results of the CSA are also published on Bloomberg, this allows investors to see the full ranking of companies that goes beyond the top 10% included in the index.

CAREER BACKGROUND:
Robert Dornau, Director, Senior Manager Sustainability Services, RobecoSAM, Zurich, Switzerland

Robert joined RobecoSAM’s Sustainability Services Team in February 2014. Before that Robert worked in different roles in climate change and sustainability, including Vice President, Global Head Climate Change Service at technical verification and inspection firm SGS, Deputy to the CEO of the International Emissions Trading Association, Consultant to the World Bank as Conference Director for Carbon Expo. Robert is a regular speaker and chair at workshops, webinars and international conferences. He holds a Master in Economics from the University of Konstanz, Germany and has published articles in peer reviewed journals and contributed chapters to different books on among others carbon markets and climate change regulation.
