Environmental Activities

All business activities inevitably have some impact upon the environment. To sustain a clean environment for our next generation, we, as a business conducting insurance and financial service, will provide environmentally friendly products and services to the society.

As global citizens, we will tackle global environmental problems in our business activities, and work towards other environmental agendas such as conservation of biodiversity etc. MS&AD will actively face these issues to be socially responsible for the environment.

Basic Environmental Policy

To tackle global environmental problems in our business activities, the MS&AD Insurance Group has set "MS&AD Insurance Group Basic Environmental Policy" to outline specific guidelines for actions and work together as a group.

Environmental Management System

To promote efforts to address environmental issues, the Company continues to engage in certification activities in accordance with international standard ISO 14001.


MS&AD Insurance Group and 18 group companies are certified with "ISO 14001." As a whole group, we have an organizational structure committed to tackling environmental problems.

MS&AD Eco-smile

MS&AD Eco-Smile is a scheme whereby points are awarded to MS&AD Insurance Group employees in return for various environmental activities, including as part of their everyday lives, volunteering and fund raising. The accumulated points are then converted into cash and donated to environmental NPOs. In addition to donations, the scheme is also set up so that employees can monitor and check details of their activities for themselves. The aim is to promote environmental preservation amongst employees and raise awareness of the importance of community-oriented social contribution activities.

MS&AD Parent and Child Environmental Courses

As part of its efforts to raise environmental awareness amongst employees and their families, the Group organizes courses that give parents and children the chance to visit the workplace and learn about environmental issues. In addition to bringing parents and children closer together, hands-on education such as this is designed to encourage environmental activities in the home.
