The latest issue of Corporate Knights Magazine
named TD to its eighth annual "Best 50 Corporate Citizens
in Canada" list.
"We are absolutely delighted by this
recognition," said Teri Currie, EVP, Human Resources and
Corporate & Public Affairs. "At TD, we don't just talk
about being an involved and active corporate citizen—we
get out there and act. We strive to do the right thing for our
customers and clients, employees, shareholders and
communities—and, in serving them, operate with integrity
and respect."
Each company that Corporate Knights assesses is classified by
sector, each of which has a set of specific Key Performance
Indicators. In the Financials sector, Corporate Knights
examines:
- Proportion of sustainable assets under management
- Liability management
- Sustainable governance / public policy influence
- Aboriginal banking or support
TD made huge strides this year and ranked 22nd overall - the
best of all major banks and up an incredible 78 positions from the
2008 survey.
