The NYK Group issued “NYK Group TNFD Report 2025 — A Passion for Planetary Wellbeing” on March 23. The report is based on the recommendations of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), a global initiative that aims to create a framework for assessing the impacts of corporate activities on the natural environment and biodiversity, as well as for disclosing nature-related information.

In February 2025, NYK Group published "NYK Group TNFD Report 2024 — A Passion for Planetary Wellbeing," which focuses on our core business of international shipping. In this report, we adopted the LEAP approach proposed by the TNFD¹ to assess nature-related issues. Based on this assessment, we explained each of the recommended TNFD disclosure areas: "Governance," "Strategy," "Risk and Impact Management," and "Metrics and Targets." The report also features a special section titled "Giving Back to the Oceans," highlighting our group’s unique initiatives to protect natural capital.

In this latest report, we have expanded the disclosures on “Nature-Related Risks and Opportunities” in the “Strategy” section, as well as “Metrics and Results” in the “Metrics and Targets” section to reflect the Marine Transportation Sector Guidance published by the TNFD in June 2025. Additionally, we have expanded the special feature "Giving Back to the Oceans," which newly includes “Addressing Environmental and Social Issues Through Involvement with River Cleanup Efforts in the Philippines.”
The NYK Group joined the TNFD Forum in December 2023 and became a TNFD Early Adopter² in January 2024, progressing preparations for information disclosure in line with TNFD recommendations.

Additionally, we announced our Nature Positive³ Declaration in October 2024. In November of the same year, we joined the 30by30 Alliance for Biodiversity,⁴ promoting activities to achieve “nature positive.”

The NYK Group aims to enhance sustainable corporate value by balancing corporate growth with the conservation of natural capital.

¹ TNFD developed an integrated method to assess nature-related risks and opportunities systematically. It consists of four phases: Locate (your interface with nature), Evaluate (your dependencies and impacts on nature), Assess (your nature-related risks and opportunities), and Prepare (to respond to nature-related risks and opportunities and to report on your material nature-related issues).

² Companies registered as TNFD Early Adopters by January 10, 2024, were announced at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting (Davos Meeting) in Davos, Switzerland, held January 15-19, 2024.

³ Halting and reversing biodiversity loss to put nature on a path to recovery.

⁴ The 30by30 Alliance for Biodiversity was launched by a group of voluntary companies, local governments, and organizations to promote efforts to certify areas that have been conserved by the private sector as other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs), as well as to expand the current protected areas in Japan (approximately 20% of land areas and 13% of sea areas).
