NYK Selected for Dow Jones Sustainability World Index
for Sixth Straight Year


September 9, 2008

NYK has once again been selected for the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World), one of the major indexes for socially responsible investment. NYK has been included in this index since 2003.

The DJSI World—developed jointly by Dow Jones & Company, a U.S.-based publisher of business and financial news and information, and the SAM Group, a Switzerland-based company that conducts assessments of corporate sustainability—is regarded as an important benchmark for investors concerned about corporate social responsibility and corporate sustainability.

This year, 320 of the 2,545 companies analyzed, including 36 of the 300 Japanese companies examined, were selected for the index.
