The Coca-Cola Company (KO) Added to Calvert Social Investment Fund Index
Calvert Investments...recently determined that The Coca-Cola Company...now meets all criteria for investment in the Calvert Funds that apply the Calvert Signature Strategies. This decision was made after careful research and analysis, as well as over ten meetings with the company in the past four years across a range of corporate responsibility and sustainability issues. Calvert has been encouraged by the company’s progress – even emerging leadership – in two key areas: labor / human rights and water – even as it continues to face serious challenges in both areas. Calvert remains concerned about the contribution of certain Coca-Cola products to the global obesity epidemic and the company’s marketing practices related to children, though significant progress has been made on that front as well.
