2022 Sustainability Performance
The Company is pleased to publish its 2022 Sustainability Report, which takes stock of its ongoing progress to address the ESG issues that are material to the business and stakeholders, and highlights key initiatives that support its 2030 Sustainability Agenda. The 2022 Sustainability Report builds on the disclosures from the Company’s inaugural Sustainability Report published in 2021, with an expanded scope of reporting and additional disclosures in line with the following reporting standards and frameworks: Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), World Economic Forum (WEF) Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics, and Financial Services Authority of Indonesia (OJK) Regulations.
Jonathan Lian, LPKR Group Head of Sustainability, said, “At Lippo Karawaci, we view sustainability as core to our mission and value proposition. It is a critical aspect of our transformation journey, as we strive to serve our stakeholders better, enhance business resilience, and seize new opportunities. As such, we are committed to accelerating the integration of sustainability into our organization through greater accountability and ambition.
In 2022, we enhanced our sustainability governance structure by formalizing the roles and responsibilities of the ESG Committee, as well as establishing the ESG Steering Group and Group Sustainability Function to coordinate ESG workstreams across all levels and business units within the Company. In addition, we have taken steps to integrate climate risks and opportunities into our enterprise risk management system and business strategies, in line with the TCFD recommendations. We conducted our first bottom-up climate risk assessment across various asset classes and time horizons to prepare more robust mitigation plans in response to the impact of climate change. As a new UNGC signatory, we have also incorporated the UNGC’s Ten Principles on human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption in our corporate policies. Lippo Karawaci is keen to support the UNGC’s agenda by promoting responsible business practices and advancing the UN SDGs throughout our ecosystem.”
