EY Japan Integrated Report 2023
LTV metrics
Our KPIs based on Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics
EY Japan is the first among its peers to disclose KPIs (LTV metrics) based on Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics developed by the World Economic Forum (WEF) International Business Council (IBC), to devote ourselves to creating value from a long-term perspective and to be fully accountable to our stakeholders.
Principles of Governance
Aspiring to be the world’s most trusted provider of specialized professional services, creating long-term value is an integral part of EY’s LTV vision goals.
EY believes that implementing quality improvement activities that consistently aim for high standards everywhere in the world will lead to the creation of long-term value for society.
Protecting the global environment
Climate change is one of the defining issues for contemporary society. The science is conclusive: we face significant and irreversible human-made changes to the climate. We know action is urgently needed if we are to protect the planet for future generations.
※1. Science Based Targets (SBT): Targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Aims to reduce CO2 emissions by organizations based on climate science, in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement, and to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
※2. EY commits to a 40% reduction in Scope 1, 2 and 3 CO2 emissions in aggregate by FY25 compared to FY19. We have set KPIs for the goals of 1) achieving a 100% reduction of CO2 emissions from office-use energy by introducing renewable energy, and 2) reducing CO2 emissions from business travel by 35%.
EY’s SBT: We are committed to a 40% reduction in Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas emissions in aggregate by FY25 compared to FY19. We are committed to achieving a 93% reduction of Scope 1 and 2 and a 32% reduction in Scope 3 by procuring renewable energy. The targets for Scope 1 and 2 are consistent with the reductions necessary to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
Scope1: All direct emissions from the activities of an organization or those under its control.
Scope2: Indirect emissions from electricity purchased and used by an organization.
Scope3: All other indirect emissions from activities of an organization, excluding electricity.
At EY, Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions mainly relate to energy used in our offices, while Scope 3 emissions are from business travel.
