Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL; President & CEO: Jotaro Tamura, Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo) today announced the publication of integrated TCFD–TNFD disclosure report, titled "IINTEGRATED TCFD / TNFD DISCLOSURE: Climate and Nature-Related Information Report." This report brings together information based on the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) (Note 1) and the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) (Note 2).

Shipping industry is not only affected by climate change but is also supported by—and, in turn, impacts—natural capital (Note 3). Since 2018, MOL has advanced climate related disclosures based on the TCFD recommendations, and in 2025, began promoting nature related disclosures based on the TNFD recommendations. By integrating these two disclosure frameworks, MOL aims to clearly communicate to investors and other stakeholders how decarbonization initiatives driven by its environmental strategy also contribute to the conservation of natural capital. The report also outlines MOL's approach to dialogue and collaboration with stakeholders to address challenges across the entire value chain. The compilation of this report also reflects MOL's commitment to proactive preparation for future disclosure frameworks such as the Sustainability Standards Board (SSBJ) (Note 4) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) (Note 5).

(Note 3) Natural capital refers to stocks of natural resources—including the atmosphere, oceans and water, flora and fauna, and soil—that form the foundation for human and business activities. Climate change mitigation measures represent an approach to the atmosphere, one of the key components of natural capital. Shipping industry both depends on natural capital—particularly the atmosphere and oceans—and influences it through its business activities.
(Note 4) The body responsible for developing Japan's corporate sustainability disclosure standards, based on the international frameworks established by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). These standards are being formulated in alignment with the recommendations of both the TCFD and the TNFD.
(Note 5) An EU directive that requires companies to disclose environmental, social, and governance (ESG) information.
