HOUSTON (April 1, 2021) – Stewart Information Services Corporation (NYSE:STC), announced today the publication of its inaugural Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report. The ESG report highlights the company’s initiatives and progress in the key areas of environmental impact, social commitment and governance.
Throughout its 127-year history, Stewart has focused on its core values and beliefs to deliver an exceptional experience for its loyal customers. In the face of 2020’s many challenges, Stewart redefined, recommitted, and reframed their vision and purpose to best support the communities they serve.
