Moody’s 2021 Stakeholder Sustainability Report

 
 

Moody’s 2021 Stakeholder Sustainability Report builds on the inaugural 2020 report and highlights the company’s progress toward incorporating sustainability into both its corporate performance and its products and solutions.

For the purposes of this report, “sustainability” encompasses Moody’s ability to manage key risks and opportunities while also positively impacting people, society and the financial markets. As such, this report covers everything from the company’s Decarbonization Plan to its diversity, equity and inclusion efforts, the protection of its customers’ data, as well as the continued integration of ESG considerations into its products and solutions.

These strategies and select initiatives from 2021 are highlighted in three main sections, each focused on a different aspect of its global community:

  • Better Business.

  • Better Lives.

  • Better Solutions.

Moody’s supports global efforts toward more consistent and comparable disclosures, and its reporting is in line with globally recognized and relevant ESG reporting frameworks. The metrics in this report cover calendar year 2021, unless stated otherwise, with qualitative discussions also representing early 2022 and future outlooks.

The contents of the 2021 report are informed by an independent, comprehensive non-financial materiality assessment and by various leading ESG disclosure standards, including the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), the Global Reporting Initiative Standards (GRI) and the World Economic Forum’s International Business Council’s Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics (WEF).
