Transparent reporting An improved and high-quality report on good governance is only possible if WDP develops a long-term vision that safeguards sustainable employment practices and sustainable business practices, as has been formulated and described in the specific focus themes. This vision is also reflected in the choice WDP has made regarding recognition of international standards for reporting and ESG rating agencies. On the one hand, WDP has opted for EPRA and GRI, given their sector relevance and international recognition. On the other hand, ISS and MSCI were chosen. They use a framework that monitors a broad spectrum of environmental, social and governance topics and trends with a material impact or different industries and companies.
