Nissan Materiality

Realizing a cleaner, safer and more inclusive society

Nissan has completed its materiality assessment considering risk and opportunity, taking into account stakeholder interests and the latest trends such as technological innovation. We have reaffirmed issues surrounding Nissan’s business and identified materiality (key issues) that are material to the long-term sustainability of the business.
In the process of identification of key issues, we considered both corporate activities and sustainability from the perspective of impacts of society and the environment on Nissan (financial impacts), which has been of great interest to investors, as well as the new perspective of Nissan’s impact on and value provided to society and environment, demonstrating the value Nissan creates.

Nissan Materiality Matrix

Nissan now uses a matrix to prioritize initiatives, conveying to stakeholders the path the company will take towards 2030 to expand opportunities for collaboration and deepen relationships of trust leading to the further promotion of initiatives.

Nissan's materiality assessment identified 21 items of materiality and every issue is material to Nissan's long-term sustainability. Nissan determined 12 items as the most important materiality items. Nissan will incorporate each of the identified items into its business activities to expand opportunities for collaboration, leading to the promotion of more robust efforts embodying our corporate purpose.
