The International Stock Exchange has set itself a target of being Net Zero on certain emissions by 2050, while also committing to minimise and offset any emissions it can't eradicate completely.
At the beginning of 2023, TISE enrolled on ESI Monitor’s FutureTracker service which is a recognised platform, providing a framework for organisations to measure, manage, minimise and benchmark the impact of their operations on the environment.
TISE established an emissions benchmark using its own data for 2022 which set the foundation for its Net Zero plans.
Cees Vermaas, CEO of TISE, said: “I am delighted to announce our corporate sustainability targets and commitments.
"We all have a responsibility to secure the future of our planet and at TISE, we are committed to playing our role by operating the business in a manner which is sustainable over the longer term. I look forward to working collaboratively with both our internal and external stakeholders to deliver on the targets and commitments which we have set out today.”
TISE’s commitment to being Net Zero for all direct and indirect operational emissions by 2050 is in line with the UN Paris Agreement to limit global temperature rises to 1.5oc by 2100.
To minimise value chain emissions, including business travel, commuting, working from home and waste generation, TISE is introducing a series of new policies and updating existing policies, continuing to support wider initiatives, such as alternative transport week, and seeking further feedback from staff on other practical ideas to further improve emissions’ performance.
