Our Sustainability Approach

In alignment with our sustainability vision and mission, CDLHT's Sustainability Framework consists of five fundamental pillars. These pillars encapsulate the priorities of our stakeholders, influence our sustainability policies and initiatives, and enable us to generate significant impact across our material ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors.

Sustainability Governance

CDLHT ensures sustained progress towards our sustainability goals and ambitions through our governance structure, which ensures the Boards have due oversight of all our sustainability initiatives and strategic imperatives

At CDLHT, the Boards are responsible for overseeing all relevant sustainability considerations to ensure CDLHT's business goals and strategies are progressing in accordance with the objectives set. The Boards also manage and monitor the material ESG factors and their performance, including those pertaining to climate-related issues such as emission reductions and climate action and resilience.

In 2024, the BSCs of the Managers were formed to further enhance our sustainability governance and better dedicate management capacity toward sustainabilityrelated issues. The BSCs took over this role from the Audit & Risk Committees ("ARCs") that previously governed our sustainability processes and strategies, including those pertaining to climate-related issues. The BSCs will continue working with the Sustainability Working Committee ("SWC") and report directly to the Boards. Our Management reports to the BSCs and Boards on CDLHT's sustainability efforts and performance progressively during the quarterly and end of financial year meetings.

The SWC comprises key personnel from various business functions and is led by the CEO of the Managers, Mr. Vincent Yeo Wee Eng. The SWC, overseen by the BSCs, manages and monitors CDLHT's overall sustainability performance and leads the development of strategies that incorporate material ESG factors into daily operations. A dedicated Sustainability Officer holds the full-time responsibility of driving green initiatives and tracking the sustainabilityrelated metrics and reports frequently to the SWC.

To strengthen its sustainability and climate-related governance capabilities, CDLHT's Directors and senior management are all required to attend ESG workshops to expand their knowledge and awareness of environmental issues impacting the portfolio. In FY 2024, members from the BSCs and senior management attended workshops focused on understanding the requirements of the ISSB.

The monitoring of our sustainability performance continues to be supported by the portfolio-wide data capture and analysis software which is continuously enhanced to enable the collection of data from each property across an array of metrics. This allows CDLHT to better monitor, track and target individual property opportunities and enhance portfolio sustainability performance.
