Improving ESG Report Compiling

To meet the regulatory requirements of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) for listed companies to disclose key environmental performance data in their ESG reports, in July 2017 the Executive Office of CITIC Limited organised an ESG preparation training course for more than 60 ESG staff from the Company’s functional departments and subsidiaries. Those who attended the training said the course deepened their understanding of ESG reporting and that it improved their ability to prepare the Company’s ESG report.
