About this report

GRI Index

The Global Reporting Initiative GRI3.12

The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) provides a globally applicable framework in the form of guidelines that set out economic, social and environmental indicators for organisations to report against.

This report has been prepared using the GRI G3 Guidelines. It represents a balanced and reasonable presentation of our organisation's economic, environmental and social performance.

We have also used the GRI Financial Services Sector Supplement: Social Performance and the GRI Financial Services Sector Supplement: Environmental Performance to develop this report. All G3 based reports must self-declare the level to which they have applied the GRI reporting framework - their 'Application Level'.

Our report applies the GRI reporting framework to an A+ level, which means that we have undertaken all G3 Profile and Management Approach disclosures and reported on all core indicators. We have provided an explanation about any core indicators that we have not reported against. All GRI indicators are listed in the GRI index.

The data and information in the report have been independently assured by Net Balance Management Group (NBMG) Australia and the financial information has been independently audited. Please refer to the assurance section of this report for NBMG's assurance statement.

All core GRI indicators, as well as the additional GRI indicators that we have reported on, can be located through the GRI index tables. You can go directly to the section that contains the information reported on by following the link.

We have provided links to the location of the indicators within the report. If we have not reported on an indicator, or have reported partially, then the explanation is contained within the GRI index tables. If we have used any assumptions in the compilation of indicators, these are also contained in the tables.

For a small number of indicators we have reported only in the GRI index table, and not in the body of the report. We have done this in order to aid readability of the report and to ensure that most of the information presented within the main text is of interest to most stakeholders. These indicators are clearly marked by the colour orange.

Indicator descriptions are abbreviations of the descriptions provided by the GRI. For full explanations of the indicators or for more information on the GRI, please visit the GRI website.
