DALLAS, July 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Comerica
Incorporated (NYSE: CMA) today announced the publishing of its
latest corporate sustainability report at
www.comerica.com/sustainability. The 2014 Comerica
Sustainability Report represents the banking company's most current
broad-based report on the economic, environmental, social, and
governance impacts and opportunities associated with its
business.
"I'm very pleased with our progress at Comerica to support
sustainable business practices," said Scott
Beckerman, Senior Vice President and Director of Corporate
Sustainability at Comerica, Inc. "In 2014, we completed a
comprehensive sustainability impact assessment in conjunction with
our internal and external stakeholders. That assessment
helped focus our reporting on the most impactful sustainability
issues – allowing us to report on what matters most to our
stakeholders."
The 2014 Comerica Sustainability Report was prepared in
accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative's GRI G4 guidance,
which enables organizations to measure and understand their most
critical impacts on the environment, society and the economy.
As a result, the report reflects a heightened focus on those
economic, environmental, social, and governance topics viewed by
internal and external stakeholders as the most relevant and
significant to Comerica's business. The report covers a
diverse array of "impact topics" such as: customer privacy and
protection; serving the underbanked; climate change, energy and
greenhouse gas emissions; regulatory risk and compliance; talent
attraction, retention, and development; diversity; and community
reinvestment and development.
"Highlights of our 2014 progress included strengthened risk
management programs, further reductions in greenhouse gas emissions
and material consumption, and continued support of our customers
and our local communities," said Beckerman. "We couldn't make this
broad progress without our dedicated colleagues who strive daily to
raise the expectations of what a bank can be."
Key highlights of Comerica's 2014 sustainability performance as
well as the banking company's progress in meeting its 2020
environmental goals are available here.
