Goal | Progress location | |
LSEG | We support the adoption of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) across key markets. (Note that the wording of this goal has been updated as the original goal was time limited to 2025. The updated wording also reflects our evolved position which supports the ISSB standards, with adoption mechanisms, scope and sequencing that ensures implementation is achievable, effective and aligned with other jurisdictions). | During 2025 as part of the engagement with EU policy makers regarding the "Omnibus" changes to EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) LSEG advocated for better alignment/interoperability with ISSB. We also responded to the UK Government consultation on the UK Sustainability Reporting Standards to advocate for global consistency and hence minimum deviation from the ISSB standards. |
We will engage with standard setters, policymakers and regulators and facilitate structured engagement between investors, issuers and intermediaries to help build capacity across the industry | 2025 Sustainability Report, page 12 | |
We will provide educational materials, research, thought leadership and training to customers about climate transition on at least a semi-annual basis | ||
We will provide internal training for relevant employees in relation to the delivery of these goals | 2025 Sustainability Report, page 18 |
