2022 Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Report

CLIMATE CHANGE RESILIENCE [3-3] As a leader in our industry, we believe Cushman & Wakefield has an opportunity and responsibility to impact climate-risk resiliency across the industries and asset types we serve. We work with owner and occupier clients to incorporate climate risk considerations into their real estate strategies and related ESG disclosures, such as through the Taskforce for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Our building selection recommendations for our own operations and to our clients include evaluations tailored to geographical locations and needs within the target market and may incorporate related climate risk considerations, as appropriate. Evaluations may consider elements of the following criteria:

To manage climate-related risks facing our business, our legal and risk team, supported by our business operations teams, uses business continuity plans, enterprise risk management assessments and technology tools. Additionally, we set relevant sustainability benchmarks and achievement goals for many of our Cushman & Wakefield-operated offices, as appropriate. We intend for our forthcoming inaugural TCFD report to further outline how we integrate climate change mitigation and resilience into our ESG strategy. The report is expected to include a description of the qualitative and quantitative climate risk and opportunity assessments we conducted alongside a third party in 2023. Cushman & Wakefield intends to leverage the results of these assessments to support the integration of climate transition and resiliency considerations into our risk management process and strategy.
