Co-operative Insurance Society (CIS) is to invite its customers to participate in its ethical investment strategy.

The general insurer will be consulting all five million of its customer through a detailed questionnaire on corporate governance, social, ethical and environmental issues.

CIS chief executive Mervyn Pedelty said: "In the best traditions of the co-operative movement, we believe CIS customers have a right to have a say in that policy.

"These are not easy subjects and we think that the social, ethical and environmental issues on which we engage should reflect the values of our customers."

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.
