Mapping our ESG disclosures
We map our ESG disclosures against three leading global reporting frameworks
Global Reporting Initiative
Our reporting against the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards highlights 16 material topics, reflecting BAT’s most significant economic, environmental and social impacts, or those that substantively influence the assessments and decisions of stakeholders.

Sustainable Accounting Standards Board
Our sustainability reporting suite in 2019 marked the first time BAT reported to the Sustainable Accounting Standards Board (SASB) framework against both the Tobacco and Agricultural Production Standards.
The SASB framework helps businesses identify, manage and report on financial aspects of sustainability consistently and transparently.

World Economic Forum ESG index
In 2019, we also reported for the first time to the four pillars of the World Economic Forum’s new ESG index.
Launched at Davos, the new index covers a core set of material ESG metrics and provides disclosure recommendations that will provide a consistent basis across industries.
