35、rnance considerations into our business.Our latest annual Environmental,Social and Governance(ESG)Report is released as the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic are receding but challenges to human and environmental health remain a concern globally.Asia is home to 60 per cent of the worlds population,co
36、ntributing almost half of global gross domestic product(GDP).As Asias population grows and demographics shift,social and public health challenges continue to evolve.Non-communicable diseases already cause 74 per cent of all deaths globally1,and their prevalence in the form of cardiovascular diseases
37、,diabetes and cancer is expected to increase.Annual healthcare expenditure across AIAs markets is expected to grow by 10 per cent per annum from 2020 to 2030.This burden is exacerbated by climate change and environmental degradation,which is already threatening sustainable access to clean water,food
38、 and clean air in communities around the world.As the largest provider of life and health insurance with operations across 18 markets in Asia,we have a responsibility to use our unparalleled scale and reach to help manage and address the health and mortality risks faced by our customers and communit
39、ies.We also strive to contribute meaningfully to the sustainable economic and social development of the region,one of the most vulnerable geographies to climate change.By doing so we can deliver our Purpose of helping millions of people live Healthier,Longer,Better Lives.Our communities are exposed
40、to the effects of climate change,and many people within our communities are vulnerable to ill-health with limited access to quality healthcare.AIA is committed to playing a role in addressing these gaps to enable better health outcomes and more resilient communities in the region.Across AIAs markets
41、,access to healthcare varies significantly;healthcare costs are rising with little insurance coverage and there is significant variance in the quality of care across different markets and socioeconomic groups.Our ESG Strategy is designed to help AIA play a major role in addressing these gaps.Our foc

68、 capital to companies that commit to sustainable outcomes,investing for the future and lowering our exposure to the risk of stranded assets in a future low-carbon economy.Sustainable Operations aims to improve the environmental performance of AIAs operations as well as to incorporate ESG factors in
69、sourcing considerations.People&Culture empowers our people to succeed through fostering a learning environment,ensuring equitable and fair processes for employment and progression and a diverse,inclusive and supportive culture.Effective Governance ensures that AIA continues to operate to the highest

71、from our Operating Philosophy of“Doing the Right Thing,in the Right Way,with the Right People.and the Right Results will come.”It is built around five pillars:Health&Wellness,Sustainable Investment,Sustainable Operations,People&Culture and Effective Governance.Together,we believe that the integratio

88、ance at AIAOUR APPROACH TO ESGESG Governance at AIABusiness unit ESG representationIn 2022,AIA has continued to strengthen its ESG governance and reporting structure to further embed a robust management framework into our local markets.All of our local business units have ESG representatives who are
89、 senior officers with the responsibility to drive the execution of the ESG Strategy in their respective markets.Most of our business units have also established local ESG committees,with the remainder expanding the mandate of existing committees to include supporting the delivery of AIAs ESG Strateg
90、y.The Group ESG Function maintains regular and robust engagement with business unit ESG representatives and other local business unit stakeholders to ensure alignment on the application of ESG best practices,the launch of new initiatives,capacity building and localisation of our overall ESG Strategy
91、.To this end,in 2022 AIA brought together ESG Representatives from most of our markets and virtually all of our largest markets with the Group ESG Function in a bespoke conference and strategy session designed to deepen Group-wide commitment to support the development of a broad range of specific in
92、itiatives to drive progress.Embedding ESG into executive compensationAIA is committed to responsible remuneration practices to attract,motivate and retain employees at all levels across the Group.Our remuneration programmes aim to reward all individuals competitively and fairly,irrespective of gende
93、r,ethnicity,age,disability or other non-performance related factors,based on impact and contribution delivered and balanced against sound risk management.AIAs performance and rewards approach supports the achievement of AIAs business strategy,which includes rewarding employees for the achievement of
94、 strategic objectives by taking into consideration the Groups capital position and long-term performance whilst not inducing excessive risk-taking behaviours or violations of applicable laws,guidelines or regulations.Our remuneration policy serves to support the above objectives through appropriate
95、governance,design,implementation and monitoring of AIAs remuneration and risk management framework.This framework applies across the Group and is implemented consistently across our business units,subject to local rules and regulations,as deemed necessary and appropriate for the Group.A robust Group
96、-wide performance management framework is applied,assessing employees and executives contributions and behaviours based on individual goals established at the beginning of the year.This ensures that reward outcomes reflect both results achieved and behaviours demonstrated,balancing the financial and
97、 non-financial aspects.In delivering our ESG Strategy,initiatives are assigned to relevant senior management members based on their functional portfolios.ESG goals are further cascaded to the relevant teams and individuals,which are then supported by continuous check-ins and guidance from our leader
98、s to ensure we remain on track to deliver effectively against expectations.Further details on the Companys remuneration framework are set out in the Remuneration Report as part of the Annual Report 2022,to be published in April 2023.AIA GROUP LIMITED|Environmental,Social and Governance Report 202214

128、Materiality:Focusing on What MattersOUR APPROACH TO ESGMateriality:Focusing on What MattersThe areas identified as material illustrate the natural maturation and refinement of ESG priorities as we continue to integrate our ESG approach with our overall business strategy.There was strong alignment ac
129、ross the stakeholder groups on the key ESG priorities for AIA,with all groups identifying Environmental Responsibility and Climate Action as a top priority.Senior management emphasised the importance of Sustainable Investment as an opportunity for AIA,while Health&Well-being and Financial Inclusivit
130、y was an important topic among our internal and external stakeholders.The natural evolution in our approach is reflected in refinement in several areas.For example,Climate Change in 2021 has evolved into Environmental Responsibility and Climate Action this year.This builds on the urgency of addressi
131、ng climate action while better reflecting the Groups desire to approach this issue comprehensively across our operations,to include for example,biodiversity and waste and water management.Similarly,our focus on Health&Wellness has evolved in 2022 to Health&Well-being and Financial Inclusivity in 202
132、2,as we look for ways to help our policyholders address physical,mental and financial well-being,and clearly reflect that the growing protection gap relates to all components of this topic.The importance of these issues continued to be powerfully illustrated with the lingering impact of Covid-19 in
133、our communities.The strain on existing public services and infrastructure brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic exacerbated existing social and demographic challenges like the rise in non-communicable diseases(NCDs)and widening income inequality.In this context,the importance of addressing the protect
134、ion gap by providing greater,more inclusive access to quality health care,and helping develop solutions for underserved populations will continue to be key priorities for the Group.The continuing refinement of our approach to materiality will support our efforts to build on our strong ESG foundation
