For over two decades, CDL has been managing our business with the triple bottom line in mind – People, Planet and Profits, which are intricately linked for our long-term viability and growth. Besides upholding CDL’s track record in ESG integration, we continually innovate, invest and improve our six capitals to be future-ready.

Today, the urgency for decisive leadership, strong collaboration and financing to enable climate action is clear. At CDL, we are strongly committed to be a catalyst of change to achieve the UN Global Goals for sustainability. 2019 will be a year that sees further acceleration of our goals and initiatives for a sustainable future, as we pursue CDL’s vision of Building Value for Tomorrow, Today.
