Environmental Governance


Environmental Leadership


To achieve our leadership goals requires support from the top down and the bottom up. Here is an overview of our environmental governance structure at TD.

The Risk Committee holds overall responsibility for setting environmental policy and ensuring that TD has developed management structures, systems and procedures to support the policy.

The Group Head of Corporate Operations holds senior management accountability for TD's environmental performance and management. The Group Head also leads an enterprise-wide Environmental Management Steering Committee comprised of senior managers from TD’s main business units. This steering committee is responsible for approving environmental strategy and performance standards, and communicating these throughout the business.

With the support of the TD Environment team, The Chief Environment Officer is responsible for developing enterprise-wide environmental strategy, setting environmental performance standards and targets, and reporting on performance.

TD's business units are responsible for implementing the environmental strategy within their units. Our approach to governance at the business unit level is managed through four strategic focus areas:
