Our sustainability approach

We seek to identify and assess the material sustainability themes for ANZ and our stakeholders. The ANZ 2030 Strategy provided an opportunity to refine the issues identified this year. The results help our disclosures remain responsive and relevant to our stakeholders. 

Our 2026 material sustainability themes:

 

> Climate and nature

> Culture, conduct and resilience

> Customer first

> Employee experience

> Human rights and community

> Technology, AI and information security

Climate and nature targets

Our climate and nature targets support the delivery of our business practices, strategy and purpose.
