About our annual reporting suite

Our annual reporting suite, published in November 2023, gives an overview of our sustainability performance.

Our 2023 Annual Report (PDF, 9MB), opens in new window provides information on our activities and outlines how we’re creating value through our strategy, operating environment, governance, financial and non-financial activities. It gives our stakeholders the big picture, beyond just the numbers.

Each year we undertake extensive stakeholder engagement with investors, analysts, employees, consumer advocate groups and community groups to ensure our Annual Report is focused on the issues that matter most. We refer to this as our materiality assessment.

Our 2023 Annual Report (PDF, 9MB), opens in new window and Sustainability Data Pack (XLS, 1MB), opens in new window have been prepared with due consideration to relevant reporting guidelines and frameworks including the IIRC Integrated Reporting Framework and Global Reporting Initiative Standards. They include independent assurance statements from Ernst & Young and KPMG.

Our 2023 Climate Report (PDF, 3MB), opens in new window has been prepared considering the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures and the reporting obligations of our membership of the Net Zero Banking Alliance. Independent assurance of key measures was provided by KPMG.
