  • IDLC First Published Its Sustainability Report in 2012, Following the GRI - G3.1 Guidelines
    WHY PREPARE A SUSTAINABILITY REPORT The concept of long-term profitability together with social development and environmental protection is fast gaining ground across organisations worldwide. These expectations will only increase and intensify as more and more customers, financiers and other stakeholders realise the need to move towards a truly sustainable economy. Thus, a Sustainability Report acts as a critical tool in realising this goal. A Sustainability Report not only communicates an organisation’s economic, environmental, social and governance performance, it also acts as a document that helps the management identify priorities, develop strategies, set goals, measure performance and manage changes to make their operations truly sustainable. In this context, the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) has been providing comprehensive Sustainability Reporting Frameworks since 1999 and offers a standardised approach to reporting. The GRI’s approach is multi-stakeholder engagement, thus maintaining a degree of transparency and consistency that makes information more relevant, credible and user-friendly. The guidelines are reviewed periodically to provide the best and most up-to-date guidance for effective reporting and have now emerged as the de facto standard for sustainability reporting worldwide. IDLC first published its Sustainability Report in 2012, following the GRI - G3.1 Guidelines. The 2014 Sustainability Report has been prepared in line with the latest G4 Guidelines issued by the GRI. G4 has a more focused approach to reporting by highlighting only the most material sustainability issues identified through stakeholder engagement. This emerging approach integrates strategic sustainability issues with other material financial information, allowing sustainability disclosure in different reporting formats thereby, enabling organisations to better inform markets and stakeholders on their sustainability performance.
