Preface As the “TCSA Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards” enter the conduct of our Tenth Annual celebration, we recall our founding in 2008 as the “Corporate Sustainability Report Awards”, empirically evincing the flourishing progress and growth of Taiwan’s success in corporate sustainability; a decade ago, overseas firms had been assiduously deploying sustainability information disclosure efforts for some time, and began to include them as core operating strategy components for corporate annual development; comparing Taiwan’s domestic performance at that time, the number of enterprises which had then issued CSR report was limited, performing well behind more advanced nations. The Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy realized the emerging trend of the time and our urgent requirements, leading the way to host our First Annual “Corporate Sustainability Report Awards”(CSRA), to recognize and encourage industry leaders in corporate sustainability reportage; after many years of progress, our overall domestic corporate CSR publishing efforts and the quality thereof have noticeably improved, with Taiwan reaching parity with the international sustainable development trends, which allowed us to develop more distinct Awards to recognize enterprise realization of corporate sustainable development efficacy and results, since 2013, we enhanced from the prior CSRA to the new “Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards” (TCSA), which now include

Awards across four major subject: Corporate Comprehensive Performance, Corporate Best Performance of Specific Category, Corporate Sustainability Report, and Outstanding Corporate Sustainability Professionals Award. Moreover, since 2016, to enhance the content and diversity of Taiwan corporate sustainability and corporate social responsibility, we have established the Taiwan Academy of Corporate Sustainability (TACS) and continued to host the TCSA, while also including foreign branches within the judging, fully realizing the international harmonization of our recognition and encouragement for exemplary and exceptional domestic and foreign enterprises. Through the concerted efforts, collaboration and cooperation of government, the civic sector and civil society, industry and academia, for the past decade, our domestic promotion of corporate sustainability is now flourishing as a trend, and attracting the serious attention of ever more corporate leaders and senior executives, such that Taiwan’s corporate performance has been noted on the international stage as quite stellar, with 18 Taiwan firms included for consideration

This year 143 enterprises registered for the competition, for a total of 209 corporate participants to date, and constituting 83% of Taiwan’s 2016 GDP, with an especially significant portion of the domestic economy, so this year’s TCSA is highly important for our domestic corporate sustainability field. In response to increasing participation from years past, we have continued to accelerate and expand the professionalism of the Judging, ensuring its fairness and transparency, by establishing a completely voluntary Judges system through open selection in 2015, after training and qualifying to serve as a volunteer Judge, with broadening participation and support from diverse industries and entities. This year there are 261 volunteers with practical corporate sustainable development issue experience and 88 academics and experts participating in the Judging pool to evaluate the entries, ensuring the evaluation process and results were comprehensive and equitable.

Observation and Trend

Observations on Judging the 2017 Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards With the emergence of the global corporate sustainability trend, the Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy (TAISE) has now for the past decade hosted the Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards (TCSA), earning broad recognition and participation from Taiwan domestic enterprises, with steady growth in entrants, and appreciable enhancement in the quality of participant corporate sustainability reportage (CSR) and corporate sustainability (CS) efficacy performance. The qualitative improvement of these domestic enterprises CSR reportage appreciably reflects recent years’ success of Taiwan companies in attaining international recognition from CSR evaluations. Taiwan has merited recognition this year (2017) in Bloomberg’s survey of Global, Regional and Economies Corporate Sustainability ESG degree of disclosure and quality (as the Outstanding Asia-Pacific Performer and second globally only to France). As Taiwan’s Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) in 2015 announced a new public policy strategy that four major corporate sectors would be subject to mandatory disclosure of CSR reportage, giving rise to a strong impetus emphasizing the criticality of serious issuance of CSR reportage, and the TCSA has also worked over the years to assiduously promote CSR judging and workshops, attaining major progress in Taiwan’s capacities. Hence, we recognize the success of our government and private sector cooperation working hand-in-hand together in this leading international trend. The 2017 TCSA Awards participant corporation background and trends are as follows:

Previous Years’ Participation and This Year’s Entrants The Awards are witnessing steady increase in participants, with a 25% increase annually, while this year (2017) enjoyed 143 entries, increase of 21 firms over last year’s 122 participants, for a total to date of 209 enterprises participating, representing 40% of all Taiwan’s CSR publishing efforts, while constituting 83% of Taiwan’s 2016 GDP. Since the majority of entries are from major corporations, they consequentially exercise a more significant influence and impact on Taiwan’s society and corporate environment. 250

Also, domestic corporations are proactively including in their CSR reportage, pragmatic feedback and consideration of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with marked increase, but the depth of such coverage has not been uniform. Online CSR webpage multimedia design and presentation has improved from years past, but there remains room for improvement of domestic website planning and performance status when compared with the physical CSR reportage quality and international corporate website design standards and quality. As for overall observations on this year’s CSR participants, the following recommendations for streamlining are suggested: 14

concomitant improvement in Taiwan’s international image, status, stature, and standing. We aspire for all Taiwan’s domestic corporations to assiduously and with alacrity anticipate more involvement and participation in sustainability information disclosure activities, fulfillment of social responsibility, improvement of sustainability management practices and information disclosure standards, so they will be more able to perform at international standards for exemplary corporate sustainability management benchmark practices, attaining international harmonization and achieving the goals of sustainable operations.

02 Observation and Trend

Environmental dimension Observations United Nations Sustainable Development Agenda impacts on Corporate Sustainable Development Environmental protection and economic development must work in tandem is a major goal for many nations aspiring for such an ideal goal, but concomitantly achieving such objective results is not an easy matter in praxis, so as we face global warming in recent years, disparity in energy supplies, and severe challenges threatening the ecological system, there are damages which affect the natural ecology and are seemingly intractable, creating tremendous losses and significant harms to society and the economy. Meanwhile, enterprises face an onslaught of demands for environmental protection, which have evolved from the past requirements of responsiveness to government imposed environmental protection laws and regulations, to public and environmental group protests and

directly relating to environmental protection, such as: “SDGs6: Clean water and sanitation”, “SDG12: Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns”, “SDG13: Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts”, “SDG14: Life bellow water”, and “SDG15: Life on land”; and targets indirectly related to environmental protection include: “SDG7: Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all”, “SDG9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation”, “SDG17: Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development”, etcetera, to guide enterprises to inculcate and interconnect the SDGs with their corporate sustainability framework, allowing for diverse considerations of the significance of environmental sustainability, and major environmental issues, while practically contributing back and responding to global SDGs. The 2017 Tenth Annual “Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards (TCSA)” enjoyed noticeably more entrants this year, with more robust information disclosures across all environmental dimensions, and enjoying framework contents and constructs which were more complete and comprehensive, while a number of enterprises also began to strengthen their reportage of sustainability efficacy and interconnections with the SDGs. As we face the future environmental issues affecting sustainable development, naturally corporations will explore their values for a harmonious balance among social considerations and development, assiduously planning pragmatic and practical policies and short-term strategic policy initiatives for environmental sustainability, while establishing follow-up and traceability procedures and mechanisms to ascertain and approve their quantified goals, promoting relevant strategies, technologies and improvements in implementation and critical review of realization measure efficacy, so as to attain all our aspirations for environmental resource sharing and stewardship.

02 Observation and Trend

Society dimension Observations SDGs Observations of Corporate Social Responsibility In 2000, 189 member states jointly announced the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals, (MDGs) aiming to achieve their targets between 2000 and 2015, thus enhancing global welfare and prosperity. The eight goals include: To eradicate extreme poverty and hunger, To achieve universal primary education, To promote gender equality, To reduce child mortality, To improve maternal health, To combat HIV / AIDS, malaria, and other diseases, To ensure environmental sustainability and To develop a global partnership for development. Throughout 2000 to 2015 the world witnessed a decline in global poverty levels by 12%, while children unable to attend school were reduced more than half, and disease induced morbidity declined by 6 million persons. However, even though the MDGs enjoyed exemplary results between 2000 to 2015, the UN nevertheless felt there remained

room for improvement and thus established the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Therefore, on September 25, 2015, the “UN Development Summit” announced “Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable

Development”, focusing on those aspects of the MDGs which had been left somewhat unfulfilled, through the proposal of 17 Sustainable Development Goals, and 169 detailed benchmark indicators or metrics, to serve nations or other organizations over the next fifteen years (from 2016 through 2030) to attain the SDGs targets and directions. These 17 SDGs comprise the trifecta of the dimensions of sustainable development through “Economic Development”, “Social Concerns”, and “Environmental Protection”. Thus, corporations engaged in promoting sustainable development

focus their aim on these 17 SDGs. Among these 17 SDGs, the Poverty, SDG 2 Zero Hunger, SDG 3 Good Health and WellSDG 10 Reduced Inequalities, SDG11 Sustainable Cities and Communities, SDG 16 Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions, and SDG 17 Partnerships for the Goals. Hence, as corporations implement the society dimensions of their sustainable development efforts, these are the nine aspects of the SDGs for emphasis. Through my continued participation in the judging

for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards (TCSA), I have personally noticed that more and more of our Taiwan enterprises are incorporating descriptions of their efforts in regard to the SDGs within their 2016 Corporate Social Responsibility Reportage or Corporate Sustainability Reports. Moreover, the award winning enterprises can rely on the description of their SDGs targeted efforts in their Corporate Social Responsibility Reportage, evincing the unique characteristics of their performance. As corporations endeavor with alacrity to achieve and attain all 17 SDGs in their entirety, corporations must balance all the dimensions of their operational activities, scope of business, core competencies, sense of mission and corporate vision, strategic objectives, strengths as well as weaknesses, so as to adroitly focus their efforts on the relevant SDGs. Sustainable development is thus already a shared global value, and the SDGs have blossomed as corporate objectives, and as leading emerging industry trends. Selecting the appropriate set among the panoply of SDGs for cogent corporate efforts with clarity for sustainable development, not only helps avoid waste of resources, but also allows for optimally targeting resources on the relevant SDGs, ensuring optimized corporate sustainable development performance, results and efficacy. Additionally, choosing the relevant SDGs to serve as highlights for description in Corporate Social Responsibility Reportage or Corporate Sustainability Reports, can not only evince an enterpriseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unique character and characteristics, but also can practically inculcate the panoply of enterprise stakeholders about the actual efficacy of the corporation in sustainable development results, achieving their recognition and support, thereby further enhancing the overall positive corporate social influence and impact. Thus, through the coalescence and synergistic deployment of robust description of the SDGs, a corporation can not only efficaciously improve its corporate image, but attain the support and recognition of all its stakeholders, allowing for greater access to needed core strategic resources, and thereby improving the corporationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s holistic market competitive strengths.

02 Observation and Trend

Observations on Governance dimensions Corporate Sustainable Management New Homework In 2015 the UN announced two major initiatives relating to sustainable development: the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement, which have served to set the pace and trajectory for global economic, environmental and social development. Since corporations play an imperative and irreplaceable role in the global movement towards sustainable development, international corporate sustainable development significantly affects domestic corporate operations and development, so in terms of corporate operating and governance teams, the best practices and trends in corporate sustainability are even more pressing and important issues of concern. So let me now present a few personal anecdotal observations and experiences with corporate sustainable development trends!

Dr. Hsien-Lun Hu

Taiwan’s enterprises are no longer unfamiliar with the UN SDGs, and corporate CSR reports will no doubt include how the company is responding to the SDGs. In fact, the practical and pragmatic realization and implementation of the SDGs involves panoply of multiple exclusions and offsets. One

Another dimension related to carbon risk is the trend announced by the Financial Stability Board’s (FSB) “Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TFCD), which in December 2016 issued two reports and Guidelines for Climate Risk related Disclosures. Since the FSB is a critical international financial stabilization organization, and its guidelines require carbon risk disclosures, and these have been adopted by the CDP as requirements for annual corporate survey items, so their future capital markets affects will no doubt exercise ever more significance. The final item to mention is the emergence of Natural Capital Accounting (NCA) and forecasting which are gaining greater importance daily as ecological resource disclosures. In 2011 the PUMA Company released their own innovative Environmental Profit and Loss (EP&L) metrics, heralding the world’s premier corporate natural capital accounting report, with disclosure of the company’s land uses, air pollution emissions, waste generation, and other environmental damage overhead for the entire 2011 year, which far exceeded traditional corporate internal overhead calculation, with expansion to include their supply chain’s environmental challenges systematically. Currently, more and more enterprises are adopting and deploying these approaches, for an emerging ecological disclosure trend which corporate governance observation will emphasize for the future. In this year’s (2017) most sought after and broadest based benchmark sustainability indicators, the DJSI and CDP results indicatedecline in the performance of Taiwan corporations. , and even
