Responsibility

Long-term value carries
long-term obligations.

The sectors in our portfolio interact with people, land, infrastructure and essential services. Responsible development belongs in the commercial conversation from the start.

Our priorities

The issues that shape durable enterprise.

Our priorities centre on the people, resources and relationships that businesses depend on.

01

People and safety

Competent teams, safe working methods and clear responsibilities are essential wherever physical work takes place.

02

Land, energy and resources

Understand water, energy use, waste and rehabilitation requirements when evaluating resource and industrial opportunities.

03

Communities and livelihoods

Consider local relationships, employment and supplier participation in the context of each business and project.

04

Integrity and accountability

Use evidence, clear contracts and accurate communications to support decisions and stakeholder trust.

Evidence before claims.

Targets and outcomes should be specific, measurable and supported by records.

Portfolio focus in renewables or circular energy does not, by itself, establish an environmental benefit. Project-level assessments and the relevant business’s disclosures should guide evaluation.
