financial stability, empowering economies and enabling customers to create sustainable growth. Given LSEG’s central position within
capital markets we aim to be a strategic enabler of sustainable growth.
This policy sets out how the Group will ensure that its approach to sustainability is commensurate with this ambition and meets theexpectations of customers, employees, regulators, shareholders and other stakeholders.
OUR POLICYLSEG aims to take a leadership approach on sustainability and as such the Group must have appropriate governance, strategy, andresources to fulfil this ambition. Sustainability is an evolving topic, with certain issues growing and diminishing in importance overtime. As such we expect the Group’s sustainability approach to evolve over time, reflecting the issues of greatest relevance,underpinned by a commitment to continuous improvement.
To ensure the Group adopts and maintains an effective approach that remains relevant and commensurate with LSEG’s ambition,
the Group must be able to demonstrate the following minimum requirements:•The Group must operate an effective governance structure, including at Board and Executive Management level, to ensure
there is adequate direction, accountability, oversight and delivery of the Group’s sustainability approach.

include but may not be limited to issues such as environmental protection, employee relations, diversity and inclusion, humanrights and sustainability disclosures.

be able to demonstrate how material issues are identified and assessed over time.

•Sustainability risks must be embedded into LSEG’s Enterprise Risk Framework to ensure that relevant risks are identified,and appropriate controls are in place to mitigate or manage them in line with the Group Risk Appropriate.
