5 ENHANCING VALUE THROUGH SUSTAINABILITY 113 SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE Sustainability is embedded in how UEM Edgenta is directed and managed, beginning at the Board and senior leadership level and extending across every layer of the organisation. Clear expectations for responsible conduct are translated into defined roles, decision pathways and operational practices within business units and functions. Rather than operating as a standalone function, sustainability is integrated into corporate oversight and enterprise risk management. This approach strengthens accountability for performance and conduct, supports transparent and consistent disclosure, and reinforces ethical standards in daily operations. Guided by recognised global sustainability principles, our governance framework ensures sustainability considerations inform strategy, risk management and long-term value creation. UEM Edgenta’s sustainability agenda is directed from the top and reinforced through structured oversight and clear accountability across the organisation. The Board provides leadership on sustainability matters, supported by dedicated Board committees and managementlevel structures that integrate ESG considerations into strategy, risk management and operational execution, as shown below. Sustainability governance is further reinforced through a comprehensive suite of corporate policies and certifications that guide conduct and decisionmaking across the Group. Both committees coordinate with each other to ensure ESG risks and opportunities are integrated into the Group’s Enterprise Risk Management framework and effectively monitored.
