Delivering sustainable growth and strong financial performance responsibly

Element’s approach to corporate responsibility is incorporated into our business decision-making and is based on a framework that identifies and addresses Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) matters. In 2018, we developed a Corporate Responsibility policy that confirms our commitment to integrate an ESG framework into our business practices and to demonstrate our application of regulatory best practices consistently across all jurisdictions we work in.

We also recognize the importance of continuously developing our ESG framework; we achieve this through established internal processes, oversight and reporting so that corporate responsibility is reviewed and discussed at Executive and Board level. Through this approach we seek to ensure that we conduct business in a way which is consistent with our values whilst delivering sustainable growth and strong financial performance.
