Our Standards

How we make decisions

We apply common standards to opportunity selection, counterparties, approvals and reporting. Each business adapts those standards to the risks of its work.

Our ethos

Responsibility begins with how we act

We consider the commercial, operational and stakeholder consequences of our decisions. We aim to build relationships and opportunities that can withstand scrutiny over time.

What is in place

WHAT WE ARE BUILDING

Our framework for responsible development

We are building a clear and accountable framework for how we allocate capital and develop our activities. Responsible capital allocation criteria and sustainable development considerations are embedded from the feasibility stage, alongside commitments to local participation and responsible supply chains. As projects progress, we will define and track community impact measures and report transparently against approved commitments.

OUR PILLARS

How we put our commitments into practice

Opportunity review

We test market demand, commercial assumptions, capital needs, delivery requirements and downside exposure before commitment.

Authority and reporting

Material decisions follow defined approvals. Reporting brings cost, programme, performance and risk into view early enough to act.

Counterparties

We seek capable partners, check relevant credentials and put responsibilities and commercial terms in writing.

Responsible growth

We distinguish practices already in place from targets still being developed, and publish measurable commitments only when they can be supported.
