STRENGTHENING OPERATIONAL RESILIENCE THROUGH CLIMATE RISK MANAGEMENT
Climate change presents critical challenges and strategic imperatives for the sustainability of modern logistics and maritime operations. PT Asian Bulk Logistics (ABL) fully recognizes the urgency of systematic climate risk management as a fundamental pillar in sustaining operational resilience and long-term business continuity. We are firmly committed to identifying, assessing, and managing both physical climate risks such as extreme weather events, flooding, and sea-level rise and transition risks associated with regulatory shifts, decarbonization policies, and evolving market demands toward a low-carbon economy. This policy serves as a strategic roadmap to protect our assets, infrastructure, operations, and supply chains, ensuring sustainable growth while delivering positive environmental contributions and strengthening trust with all stakeholders
ABL’s climate risk framework is anchored in recognized national regulations and leading international standards, including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards, IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures, and ISO 31000 Risk Management Guidelines. We adopt a holistic approach by embedding climate-related risks directly into the Company’s Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) system across strategic, financial, operational, people, technological, and compliance dimensions. Our mitigation and adaptation initiatives focus on improving energy efficiency, optimizing logistics routes, deploying cleaner technologies, establishing operational contingency plans against extreme weather disruptions, and partnering with supply chain stakeholders to foster low-emission operations.
Under the active oversight of the Risk Management Committee (RMC) and the Board of Directors, ABL ensures robust governance by reviewing climate risk management at least semi-annually and conducting periodic internal audits to evaluate operational effectiveness. We track key climate performance metrics such as energy efficiency, greenhouse gas emissions, and operational resilience indicators while establishing realistic, measurable targets that are transparently reported to our stakeholders. Through collective employee engagement and structured risk practices, ABL is dedicated not only to achieving commercial excellence, but also to fulfilling its responsibility toward planetary preservation and a sustainable future for all.
