Explanation: As part of our stakeholder dialogue, we inform the capital market about our sustainability management activities. This means our sustainability performance is rated by independent third parties.

In financial year 2021/22, METRO was again listed in both the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe and World.

The CDP results for 2022 will not be published until after the assurance date of this report, so the information is still dated December 2021.

As the MSCI result was only published after the non-financial disclosure of the annual report had been audited, the MSCI rating result shown here differs from the status of the non-financial disclosure.
