Ladbrokes Bingo Ranked as World Leader
The Dow Jones Sustainability Index has ranked Ladbrokes Bingo as a world leader in ‘Sustainability’. These figures were based on the annual global SAM analysis of corporate economic, environmental and social performance.
This is thought to be a great achievement for Ladbrokes as not only have they picked up this coveted title, they were only one of two gambling companies worldwide to be included in the DJSI index in the first instance.
The DJSI looks at a range of different issues and these currently include corporate governance, risk management, branding, climate change mitigation, supply chain standards and labour practices. It looks at both general and industry specific sustainability criteria for each of the 58 sectors defined according to the Industry Classification Benchmark (ICB).
In total there are just 317 companies worldwide who are recognised by the Dow Jones Sustainability Index, which is why this is a massive notch in the bedpost for Ladbrokes.
Commenting on the recognition by DJSI Chief Executive Christopher Bell commented: “Corporate responsibility runs through everything we do and I’m pleased that Ladbrokes has been recognised as the top ranked gambling company in the world in this area.”
Ladbrokes Bingo also ranked very highly in a few other areas, human recourse practices and anti money laundering were just two of them. Money laundering through gambling as been a well known fact for many years, so it is good to see big companies like Ladbrokes doing everything they can to try and put a stop to this.
All gaming companies have a responsibility to promote responsible gambling and this was another area in which Ladbrokes Bingo ranked very highly by the DJSI. Ladbrokes are one of the most well known and established gaming sites in the UK, they also now run a very successful online bingo site on the net.
Who would have thought 10 years ago that a bookies would give away free money? But that is exactly what Ladbrokes Bingo offer by the way of deposit £5 get £20 free at their online bingo site. Bingo is a whole new gaming ball game, but Ladbrokes have stepped up to the bingo challenge very well.
