Additional reporting / Reporting and Measurement

Monitoring what we have done
Evidencing our Corporate Responsibility performance relies on our ability to access reliable, timely, complete and accurate data and to measure ourselves against documented and accredited performance indicators.

In reporting all our historic data, and to aid true comparability, we have reflected the current Group structure post the Initial Public Offering of MF Global in 2007, in both excluding data relating specifically to MF Global and amending the headcount used for the purpose of normalisation.

Measuring the integrity of data
Our approach continues to build on the controls and processes established in prior years. The Corporate Responsibility team has previously identified the core performance indicators to reflect the nature of the business, key resources and associated impacts. This enables us to measure, track and report our performance as a company with the appropriate degree of granularity.

We continue to build our network of global data coordinators who prepare and submit data, along with supporting documentation for accreditation purposes. Focusing on all offices with more than 15 employees, our reported results now represent over 95% of our people globally for many environment indicators and any missing data is assessed by extrapolation on a per capita basis.

Our non-financial data is collected utilising an internet-based application, Credit360, that enables local input globally as well as accurate and effective administration, analysis and reporting.
