Concrete progress across three key areas

The improvement follows a targeted action plan launched after the 2025 assessment. It reflects significant progress across three areas:

• Sustainable Procurement increased by 36 points, from 41/100 to 77/100: This progress was supported by a new policy, ESG clauses in supplier contracts, a supplier code of conduct and an ESG risk assessment of suppliers.
• Ethics increased by 26 points, from 65/100 to 91/100: The result reflects the strengthening of Wavestone’s group-wide ethics framework.
