NPR’s Materiality

Materiality Identified

NPR, Prologis REIT Management K.K. (PLDRM) and Prologis Japan identified nine material issues on ESG in connection with the businesses of the Prologis Group in 2021.

Materiality Assessment

In 2021, NPR, PLDRM and Prologis Japan identified material issues on ESG in connection with the businesses of the Prologis Group through the following process:

  • Listing up material ESG issues (visualizing a long list)
    We prepared a long list of material issues by referring to measurements of multiple ESG assessments (such as GRESB, etc.), which are highly regarded by global investors, as well as various international norms (such as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)) and international disclosure standards (such as GRI and SASB) which are deemed reflecting views and principles of the Prologis Group’s multi-stakeholders.
  • Integrating the degree of impact of listed ESG issues (preparing a middle list)
    We clarified material issues, which have a high impact on the Prologis Group’s stakeholders and are related with the SDGs prioritized by both NPR and Prologis Japan, by screening the long list and identifying important themes that are commonly contained in the multiple issues within the list.
  • Weighting and approval (finalizing a short list)
    Fully involving the senior management of PLDRM through the deliberations at the ESG Committee, we have short listed nine material issues from the previously identified middle list based on the levels of importance/essentiality of each issue. The subject short list of the nine material issues has been reviewed and approved by the Executive Committee of Prologis Japan, and KPIs linked to materiality applicable to NPR’s properties have been reviewed and approved by the Investment Committee of PLDRM and the NPR’s Board of Directors.

KPIs Associated with Materiality and Contribution to SDGs

We have set up the following KPIs for each materiality and will continue to monitor their progress. KPIs for each materiality were identified and its progress is being managed and measured. The KPIs for each materiality are aimed to contribute to the SDGs.
