Sustainability

Continuing to generate long-term value for all our stakeholders is central to ASX's ability to operate at the heart of Australia's financial markets.

Trusted actions, resilient operations, efficient markets 

We understand that optimising our economic, social and environmental outcomes requires ongoing focus and effort.

Inherent within our vision to be the world’s most respected financial marketplace is having trusted actions, resilient operations and a commitment to providing efficient markets.

We recognise that as a market operator it is critical that we lead by example, with good corporate governance and effective risk management. We are committed to being a responsible corporate citizen and having engaged and energised people. In addition, as a provider of critical financial infrastructure we have a responsibility to support the integrity of our markets and encourage innovation for the benefit of all Australians.

Our approach to managing ASX's long-term sustainability brings together the broad range of activities occurring within our business to manage our non-financial material risks.

Our 2020 Sustainability disclosures have been prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards: Core Option, and can be found throughout ASX’s 2020 Annual Report and this website.
