Japan Metropolitan Fund Investment Corporation ("JMF") hereby announces that it was designated as B score (leadership level) for 2022 by the Carbon Disclosure Project ("CDP") Climate Change Program, which assesses activities for disclosure of information related to climate change.

1. About CDP

CDP is an international non-profit organization researching countermeasures against global warming by listed companies with the support of institutional investors around the world managing total investments of $130 trillion. CDP has gradually come under the spotlight in recent years as private sector effort working to ensure the effectiveness of the Paris Agreement, which went into effect on November 4, 2016.

Since 2003, CDP has been sending out questionnaires every year to major companies around the world seeking the disclosure of information such as business risks and opportunities regarding greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. CDP then assesses corporate actions against the issue of climate change based on their responses. In terms of assessments, there are eight grades; A, A-, B, B-, C, C-, D and D-. JMF participated in CDP Climate Change Program in 2016 as the first participant in J-REIT, and this year is the 7th time.
