Each of AEGON’s country and business units has assigned responsibility for sustainability to a senior manager.
These managers oversee the following:
- Implementation of local sustainability policies and initiatives.
- Development of local sustainability policies.
- Collation of all relevant data on sustainability issues.
- Reporting of all progress to AEGON’s sustainability team, based at the company’s Corporate Center offices in The Hague, the Netherlands.
In many country or business units, individual managers oversee sustainability activities alongside other professional responsibilities. These activities are therefore reflected in the overall assessment of the sustainability manager’s job
performance.
AEGON’s sustainability team is headed by Marc van Weede, who was appointed global Head of Sustainability in October 2010. Mr. Van Weede reports to Alex Wynaendts, AEGON’s CEO, and to Marco Keim, the member of AEGON’s
Management Board responsible for sustainability issues. Questions of strategy and policy are subject to approval by AEGON’s Executive and Management Boards.
