How to become a PSI signatory company
Signatory companies are insurance companies who have made the decision implement the principles of sustainable insurance across their business.
By becoming a signatory to the Principles for Sustainable Insurance you are publicly demonstrating your company’s commitment to accountability and transparency to the public in managing ESG issues.
Step One: Complete the PSI signatory company application form (La version en française ici) and prepare a letter signed by your organisation’s Chief Executive Officer, Chair of the Board or equivalent positions confirming:
- Your organisation’s approval of the Principles
- Your organisation’s agreement to participate in the annual public disclosure process
- Your organisation’s agreement to pay the annual fees outlined in Section IV of the application form.
Please refer to the FAQ section of the PSI website for more information on these signatory requirements.
Step Two: Send the letter, completed application form and other supporting documents, including your organisation’s Certificate of Incorporation to psi@unepfi.org.
Step Three: Once we have contacted you to confirm your status as a signatory, you will receive additional membership details as well as communications material to assist you in announcing your status as a PSI signatory.
How to become a PSI supporting institution
Supporting institutions carry out activities relevant to the insurance industry but are not companies. Examples of supporting institutions include but are not limited to insurance regulatory or supervisory authorities, insurance associations or federations, and insurance institutes or academies.
As a supporting institution, you are publicly demonstrating your organisation’s support for sustainable insurance aims. Your organisation will be updated on and can be invited to relevant activities of the UNEP FI Principles for Sustainable Insurance Initiative.
Instead of paying annual fees, supporting institutions are encouraged to carry out at least one activity each year that would support the adoption and implementation of the Principles. Such activities include but are not limited to conducting research, providing training, hosting events and translating materials.
Step One: Complete the PSI supporting institutions application form and prepare a letter signed by your organisation’s Chief Executive Officer, Chair of the Board or equivalent positions confirming your organisation’s support for the Principles.
Step Two: Send the letter and completed application form to psi@unepfi.org.
Step Three: Once we have contacted you to confirm your status as a supporting institution, you will receive additional membership details as well as communications material to assist you in announcing your status as a PSI signatory.
