Summary:

AXA was one of the first insurance companies to stop investing in coal and created a business model to phase out the coal industry. AXA is a signatory of the Principles for Responsible Investment, incorporating ESG issues into investment analysis, decision-making, and other business practices. AXA is committed to "transitioning its insurance, reinsurance and investment portfolios to net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050". AXA does not provide viewpoint protections for its employees and discriminates against some religious organizations in its charitable giving. AXA's CEO Scott Gunter is a signatory of the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion pledge, which includes a commitment to promote DEI through bias education training in the workplace. The company is a corporate partner of the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce and has donated to the Equality PAC. AXA was a member of the Global Alliance for Responsible Media, which demonetized and suppressed content that it deemed to spread “hate speech” or “misinformation”, discuss “debated social issues in a negative or partisan context”, or “vilif[y]” individuals based on sexual orientation and gender identity. These arbitrary guidelines were used to censor mainstream perspectives online. For these reasons, AXA receives a High Risk rating.
