L&G unveils first CSR report

Insurance firm Legal & General has produced its first corporate social responsibility report.

The web-based document is unusual in that it is verified by the group’s chief internal auditor, Christopher Sparrow, rather than a third party.

Neville Walton, L&G’s director of corporate communications, said the firm was likely to continue the practice. ‘Our view is that such money as we have budgeted to support CSR should go to the people who need it, rather than consultants,’ he said.
