We know that sustainability is at the root of a more resilient future. Our 2023-26 Sustainability strategy, called &ldquo;Roots of resilience&rdquo;, focuses on protecting natural ecosystems, addressing climate change, and embedding sustainable practices across our operations.</div><div><br>
</div><div>Our Pillars:</div><ul><li><b>
Valuing nature: </b>How we impact nature affects how nature impacts us. Resilient ecosystems - the foundation of a sustainable planet and society &ndash; are essential to our future. We&rsquo;re committed to protecting and restoring nature &ndash; from mangrove forests to the bees in our backyard &ndash; by increasing biodiversity awareness and inspiring clients and colleagues to put nature at the heart of their plans.</li><li><b>
Addressing climate change: </b>The effects of a changing climate are far-reaching and significant. Unpredictable weather, increasing temperatures, and rising sea levels cause both social inequalities and environmental disruption. We're building a net zero strategy, developing insurance products and services, and mobilizing to advance thought leadership and investment in societal-led solutions.</li><li><b>
Integrating ESG: </b>All companies have a role to play in building a more resilient future. Incorporating ESG considerations into our internal processes and practices builds resilience from the roots of our business. We&rsquo;re training our colleagues, engaging our external partners, and evolving our sustainability governance and reporting.</li><li><b>
