Sustainability

Climate

For each of FY20 to FY23 (inclusive) we issued a Sustainability Report that described our efforts to implement sustainable business practices including how we were working to reduce the environmental impact of our daily business operations.

From FY24 we replaced this with our Climate Statement as required under the Financial Sector (Climate-related Disclosures and Other Matters) Amendment Act.

Our Climate Statements and Sustainability Reports are available below.

Modern Slavery

Since FY20 we have issued a Modern Slavery Statement each year as required under the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018. Our Modern Slavery Statements are available below.
