ESG

Separate to our investment activities, Munro undergoes an external carbon footprint audit on our business operating emissions annually with the aim of maintaining certification that our business operations are carbon neutral from the Australian Government as ‘Climate Active’. Munro was first certified as Climate Active for financial year 2022. This certification requires us to implement an emissions reduction plan that is actioned and measured.

We continually look to implement changes to reduce our carbon intensity and our reliance on carbon offsets. More information about Munro’s Climate Active certification is set out in Munro’s Climate Active Public Disclosure Statement:
