Risk Management in Sustainability

ACCIONA believes that responding to future risks related to the macro trends of sustainability:

• Improves informed decision-making.
• Reduces regulatory risks and costs.
• Increases resilience to new environments.
• Can be a source of competitive advantage for new business opportunities.

In order to better manage on these environmental, social and ethical risks in 2016, a new methodology for identifying and assessing these sustainability risks has been developed.

The methodology is based on parameters such as the geographic component, economic and financial consequences, the importance of the issue for every business, and the potential impact of each risk on the reputation and management of the company.

Sustainability risk maps will be obtained in 2017 in those countries where the main core businesses of ACCIONA operate, including the environmental risks of the company.
