        Summary 
        Daiwa House Group demonstrates transparency in its reporting on numerous sustainability topics, however, there is clear potential to strengthen its performance in many areas in order to improve its position in the benchmark. The company reports on key areas such as water withdrawal, energy efficiency and scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions, with time-bound targets for reducing water consumption and increasing energy efficiency, along with updates on its progress. It also outlines its business continuity plan and emergency response systems for addressing natural disaster risks.
Regardless, there is potential for the company to improve its performance in several areas. While the company discloses its management and monitoring systems for water withdrawal, it should prioritise reducing water consumption by improving the effectiveness of these systems. Additionally, Daiwa House publicly commits to respect human rights, but should disclose its process to identify and mitigate its salient human rights risks.
Daiwa House provides limited information on its actions to mitigate noise pollution and risk assessment conducted against natural disasters. Addressing these gaps will help the company strengthen its sustainability efforts and align with industry standards.
