Asian Development Bank Sustainability Report 2015

Investing for an Asia and the Pacific Free of Poverty

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has issued its Sustainability Report every 2 years since 2007. For 2015, the Sustainability Report highlights the sustainability of ADB’s investments and organizational activities during 2013–2014. A separate detailed Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) index contains the responses of ADB to standard and specific material disclosures in the GRI’s G4 Sustainability Reporting Guidelines and G4 Financial Services Sector Guidelines. The Sustainability Report and detailed GRI Index are available online at www.adb.org/documents/ asian-development-bank-sustainability-report-2015. The Sustainability Report focuses on (1) ADB's investments in poverty reduction and inclusive economic growth, environment and climate change, regional integration, and infrastructure; (2) ADB's private sector, finance and knowledge partnerships, and governance and safeguard matters; and (3) ADB's human resource activities, environmental footprint, and community activities as topics that are material to ADB's stakeholders in a sustainability context.
