[Sustainability] Materiality

Integral’s Materiality

Materiality Assessment Process

We identified our priority themes (materiality) through the following process:

STEP1Identification of Material Issues

We created a list of highly relevant issues for our group by referencing international guidelines such as SDGs, GRI, and SASB standards, working in collaboration with external advisors.

STEP2Stakeholder Dialogue and Information Collection

External Stakeholder Engagement:

  • Conducted surveys with domestic and international LP investors
  • Gathered feedback from portfolio companies
  • Engaged in dialogue with external ESG and sustainability experts

Internal Stakeholder Engagement:

  • Organized company-wide workshops with all employees
  • Held multiple discussion sessions with board members, including outside directors
  • Consolidated diverse perspectives and opinions

STEP3Materiality Determination

Our final materiality assessment was based on:

  • Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of findings from Steps 1 and 2
  • Alignment with our corporate philosophy
  • Definition of specific approaches for each identified material issue

Through this systematic process, we established a clear framework for addressing our most significant sustainability challenges and opportunities.
