Nissan Materiality

Realizing a cleaner, safer and more inclusive society

Nissan identified key material issues to address company-wide, based on risk and opportunity analysis conducted in FY2022. In order to identify the materiality, we also considered stakeholder interests, emerging trends such as technological innovation, and issues surrounding Nissan’s business.
In identifying key issues, we considered both corporate activities and sustainability from two perspectives: The impact of societal and environmental factors on Nissan (including financial implications), which is of growing interest to investors and, impact on and value delivered to society and the environment, demonstrating the value Nissan creates.
In FY2024, we updated certain material items to reflect the evolving social trends and changes in our business landscape.

Nissan Materiality Matrix

Nissan has identified 21 material issues through a comprehensive materiality assessment, each of which is critical to the company's long-term sustainability. Among these, 13 materiality items have been determined as the most important. By presenting these issues in a materiality matrix, Nissan aims to clearly communicate its strategic direction toward 2030. This approach is designed to expand opportunities for collaboration and deepen relationships of trust leading to the further promotion of initiatives.
