Statement on Human Rights

Externally published statement designed to frame Aegon’s ongoing stewardship of human rights, including both the direct impacts of our daily operations as well as the indirect impacts of our business activities. Based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, core standards of the International Labor Organization (ILO), and the principles of the UN Global Compact. The statement commits Aegon to upholding international human rights standards at all businesses where the company has sufficient management control and, where possible, to help ensure partners uphold the same standards. The statement is supported by a regular human rights risk assessment, covering Aegon’s businesses in the Americas, Europe, and Asia.
