MENU PLACES PEOPLE PARTNERS PERFORMANCE PERFORMANCE (ENVIRONMENT) (ECONOMIC) Governance Strategy Risk Management Metrics and Targets The Board provides oversight of our risk management framework and SD risks, including climate-related risks. Our SD agenda and the progress of our SD 2030 Strategy are reported by the ESGSC and discussed at quarterly board meetings. We also conduct regular risk identification and analysis and review management processes throughout the year through the Audit Committee and our ERM System. This includes our Corporate Risk Register in which climate change has been identified as an emerging risk. Both the Board and the ESGSC have sufficient knowledge of climate-related issues and the impacts of such issues on the company’s business and operations. Regular training on climate-related issues is provided to ensure that all our people keep abreast of the latest developments. A Working Group under the Performance (Environment) Pillar, composed of members with sufficient technical expertise in climate-related issues, is in place to plan and implement different mitigation and adaptation policies and measures, and to facilitate the integration of climate-related issues into business operations. Our Climate Change Policy guides our management approach and strategy on climate change mitigation, adaptation and resilience. We also support the Business Environment Council’s efforts to develop and promote the Low Carbon Charter for the property and construction sector in Hong Kong. In 2020, we conducted a materiality review to gather feedback from 570 internal and external stakeholders through qualitative interviews and a quantitative survey. The topics of green building construction and renovation, energy efficiency, decarbonisation, climate adaptation and resilience were identified as material issues to our business continuity and development. These issues align with the focus areas of the Performance (Environment) Pillar of our SD 2030 Strategy. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 223
