The Board of Directors of BPPLAS ("the Board") is mindful of the ever-growing emphasis and encouragement by our various key stakeholders, particularly the investing community and shareholders, on the Group's Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") and sustainability related goals. The Board retains the role of main steward and holds overall accountability, oversight and review of the Group's sustainability matters through delegations to its Board Risk Management Committee ("BRMC") who is tasked with the identification and management of the Group's Economic, Environmental and Social ("EES") risks and opportunities. [...] The Management Risk Management Committee ("MRMC") which comprises of the Executive Directors, Senior Management and selected Heads of Department, will assist the BRMC by setting up designated sub-unit Risk and Sustainability Working Committees ("RSWCs"), who will be tasked with the dual role of implementing the Group's risk policies and sustainability initiatives, as well as the day-to-day management of risks and sustainability matters in business operations. This includes the identifying, evaluating, managing and monitoring of EES risks and opportunities, as part of the Group's enterprise risk management framework. The MRMC will conduct periodic Risk and Sustainability assessments, which will be compiled and tabulated for reporting to the BRMC (at least 2 times a year) on the Key Risks and Material Sustainability Matters of the Group and outlining future strategies and implementation of action plans by the respective RSWCs.
