Edward Jones Mission, Vision & Values

Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility at Edward Jones

Our goal at Edward Jones is to promote sustainability in our role as consumers and corporate citizens. We do this by recycling and composting at all corporate locations, improving the quality of life for our associates and neighbors, and minimizing our overall environmental footprint for the sake of future generations.

Commitment
The Edward Jones core principles state that "we are committed to long term … philosophy, strategies, investors, relationships."

This presents an opportunity for Edward Jones as a leader in the financial services industry to acknowledge that:

Protecting the environment is a real concern to our associates and the general public
We have a responsibility to meet the long-term challenges facing our planet
We need to integrate environmental sustainability into our corporate ecosystem and strategic planning.
We share the value our investors place on protecting and preserving our environment, and look forward to continuing to develop new ways to be environmentally conscious.

“Caring about our clients, one another and our communities isn’t something we ‘do’ at Edward Jones; it’s who we are.” – Managing Partner Penny Pennington

The associates at Edward Jones have the privilege of being responsible to and good stewards of the communities where we live, work and serve — maintaining a spirit of caring that is in our cultural DNA. As a purpose-driven organization, we want to make a difference in people’s lives, both in and out of the office. Edward Jones takes its role as a respected corporate citizen and community partner very seriously — and personally.

It’s why we always put our client’s interest first.
It’s why we value our associates as individual — respecting differences and unique contributions.
It’s why we instinctively work in partnership to give back to local communities and encourage our associates to do the same.
It’s why we apply a quality-oriented, long-term philosophy to strategic decisions that encourage sustainability and our commitment to the environment.
These are our values — and they aren’t just lip service. They play out in our commitment to volunteering, charitable giving and advocating on behalf of the causes our associates care about, including our stewardship of the world around us.
