Best Overall Transparency: Lowe’s Companies

This year, Lowe’s stands out as the champion of transparency. Lowe’s prioritized readers by implementing best practices across all documents. This includes using graphics and visuals to effectively illustrate company goals and performance. Notably, Lowe’s produced engaging executive summaries, especially in the proxy statement. The company is also proactively anticipating the requirements of CSRD by disclosing its value chain and aligning the sustainability report with the European Union’s European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).
