Our purpose at ANZ is to shape a world where people and communities thrive. We're focused on integrating our purpose and ESG approach into our business strategy. This has created opportunities for us to better serve our customers and generate long-term shareholder value.
Our ESG approach is focused on three key areas - Financial Wellbeing, Environmental Sustainability and Housing - where we're responding to complex societal issues central to our customers and business strategy. These focus areas are underpinned by a commitment to Fair and Responsible Banking.
Improving the financial wellbeing of our customers, employees and the community at large by helping them make the most of their money throughout their lives.
Supporting household, business and financial practices that improve environmental sustainability.
Improving the availability of suitable and affordable housing options for all Australians and New Zealanders.
Keeping pace with the expectations of our customers, employees and the community, behaving fairly and responsibly and maintain high standards of conduct.
Each year, we set public targets that reflect our strategic priorities and respond to our most material Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues. We regularly review and report on our progress in publicly-available reports. Below is a snapshot of our progress on some of our key initiatives.

Our integrated approach to ESG, linked closely with our purpose, values and culture, supports the sustainable delivery of our business strategy. Our ESG policies and practices support us in achieving our strategy and focus on responding to our most material ESG risks and opportunities.
We support and respect the human rights of our employees, customers and communities in line with international standards, our Code of Conduct and our Values. We expect the same commitment to human rights from everyone who works for or with us.
We want to be the leading Australia- and New Zealand-based bank in supporting customers' transition to net zero emissions by 2050.
Through our annual materiality assessment, we engage with internal and external stakeholders to inform our identification of ESG risks and opportunities. We seek to identify those issues that have the most potential to impact our ability to operate successfully and create sustainable value for our shareholders and other stakeholders. Further details including the outcomes of our most recent materiality assessment can be found in our ESG reporting.
