Shareholder sustainability agenda
There is an increasing interest on the part of shareholders
in a multitude of topics such as reducing
greenhouse gas emissions, increasing traceability, clean
revenue, anti-corruption initiatives, and the work we do
to ensure sustainable practices in our supply chains.
These factors, together with an increased role for shareholders,
require a high level of transparency and mutual
understanding. AAK is continuously working to enhance
the level of disclosure to meet different needs for information
and staying ahead of emerging Environmental,
Social and Governance (ESG) disclosure requirements.

frameworks, including ratings and listings.
Throughout the year, we engaged in dialogues with
a number of investment analysts and investors specializing
in ESG requirements. We listen and learn how
to further adopt, and make it it easier to evaluate our
progress on sustainability.
The intention is that the AAK Group’s annual sustain-

practices. However, a constructive dialogue on risks,
opportunities and strategies related to sustainability is
always valued, in line with ethical stock exchange rules.
