Document purpose

This report contains data relating to LSEG's sustainability performance for use by interested stakeholders, and includes information relevant to our material sustainability issues. This Databook should be referenced alongside LSEG's Annual Sustainability Report 2023.

Scope and reporting boundaries

The data presented relates to the whole Group where we have operational control as per the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (revised edition) and UK Government Environmental Reporting Guidelines. This data currently excludes Tradeweb, however we are undertaking a review of our organisational reporting boundary and may change the scope of the report in future, subject to the findings of the review.

Principles of reporting

In the preparation of the report we have sought to ensure that the reported data accurately reflects our FY2023 sustainability performance. Unless specified otherwise in the endnotes, all data is from the period

1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023. In line with standard industry practice some sustainability data is estimated where real data is unavailable. Where this is the case, it has been explained in the endnotes. Explanations for material fluctuations (+/- 10% from previous year) have also been explained in the endnotes.
