SUSTAINABILITY DISCLOSURE TOPICS AND ACCOUNTING METRICS
Breckinridge has been a longstanding supporter of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and its mission
of standardized corporate sustainability reporting. We are members of SASB’s Alliance as well as its Investor Advisory
Group. To advance our commitment, we adopted their recommended reporting standards for the Asset Management &
Custody Activities Industry for the first time in 2018. Below is our first attempt at reporting on these standards, and we
expect our reporting to improve over time.
