Our Reporting Approach Scope of the Report This is the sixth annual standalone sustainability report by Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited (SHKP). It describes the sustainability performance and initiatives of head officeandwholly-ownedsubsidiaries inHongKong.These includepropertymanagement subsidiaries Hong Yip Service Company Limited (Hong Yip) and Kai Shing Management Services Limited (Kai Shing); construction company Sanfield (Management) Limited; and the four Royal brand hotels – The Royal Garden, Royal Park, Royal Plaza and Royal View (collectively the Group). The Group also has other investments in Hong Kong, with interests in its listed subsidiaries – SmarTone Telecommunications Holdings Limited (SmarTone) and SUNeVision Holdings Limited (SUNeVision). This year, we have adjusted our scope of reporting to prepare for the commencement of the amendments of Environmental, Social and Governance Reporting Guide (ESG Guide) set out in Appendix 27 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. The ESG Guide requires all listed companies to publish ESG reports. Accordingly, SmarTone and SUNeVision will publish their independent ESG reports. This report therefore will only focus on the significant environmental and social impact brought about by our property management, construction and hotel businesses. For reports of our subsidiaries SmarTone and SUNeVision, please refer to their respective annual reports and websites. This report will also focus on the Group’s Hong Kong operations, which represent the majority of our investments. While we have continued to expand our business on the mainland, our investments there now represent only about 20% of our portfolio. Please refer to our annual reports for more details about our businesses. Unless otherwise stated, this report covers our progress on environmental, social and governance issues from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016. Reporting Standards This report has been prepared in accordance with the ESG Guide, the Core Option of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G4 Sustainability Reporting Guidelines, and GRI’s sector guidance on the Construction and Real Estate Sector. Reference is also made to the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC). To meet these standards, key stakeholders and our Sustainability Steering Committee have been engaged in the preparation of this report and in reviewing the most relevant and important sustainability issues for the Group to report on.
