Future Outlook

The Group positions responding to sustainability, including climate change, as one of our important management challenges, and we are advancing various initiatives. Moving forward, we will continue to steadily promote strategic initiatives related to climate change, including efforts towards net-zero based on the "Daiwa Securities Group Carbon Neutral Declaration", and aim to achieve the "Vision 2030". Additionally, we will strive to enhance communication with stakeholders and further improve information disclosure based on the TCFD recommendations.
