Environment A healthy environment is crucial to the long-term success of the economy and of communities around the world, but climate change, biodiversity loss and other environmental challenges pose increasing threats to our collective future. As a global fnancial institution working with clients in nearly every sector of the economy, we have an important role to play in supporting our clients’ environmental objectives and helping advance a sustain- able global economy.

IMPROVING EFFICIENCY AND ACCELERATING ELECTRIFICATION Optimizing the Firm’s use of energy is not only essential for reducing our GHG emissions, but also a means of enhancing our operations and reducing energy costs. We therefore work to identify and implement ef- ciency measures across our global operations. Highlights of our progress in 2022 included: Data center efciency: With the growing role of technology in fnancial services, data centers are an important component of our operations. To help manage the energy footprint from our data centers, we are implementing a global strategic data center confguration designed to an optimum size to serve our overall portfolio, and we continue to enhance the efciency of individual data centers. Our strategy includes migrating to newer, more efcient hardware and software to increase utilization and sharing of INTRODUCTION physical infrastructure. This drives down the size and number of servers needed to process our business, which lowers power consumption. We are also expanding the collection of detailed, real-time performance ENVIRONMENTAL data to inform how we design, build and operate data centers, this has allowed us to operate our data cen- ters at warmer temperatures and save energy.

Although we endeavor to source high-quality carbon credits verifed by independent third parties, the ability to use carbon credits to fully and permanently "ofset" emissions or achieve carbon "neutrality" relies on certain assumptions and is subject to debate among experts. 21
Sustainable Buildings As a fnancial services company, the bulk of our reported operational environmental impact stems from how we design, build and operate our buildings. We therefore seek to take a holistic approach to enhancing the sustainability of our real estate portfolio, with a particular focus on increasing energy and resource efciency; reducing emissions; and creating healthy, productive spaces for our customers, clients and employees. Our priority initiatives currently include the following: Artifcial Intelligence building management: In an efort to increase the efciency of our ofce buildings, through the end of 2022, we installed a smart building management software at over 5 million square feet of our real estate port- INTRODUCTION folio.

We utilize the power of our businesses, combined with philanthropic capital, data-driven insights and policy expertise to help support a more inclusive and sustainable economy. At the core of these eforts is our Racial Equity Commitment and our work to advance diversity, equity and inclusion ("DEI") within our orga- nization. JPMorgan Chase also invests in our people through all phases of the employee life cycle and seeks to foster an inclusive and supportive work environment.

Our Journey and The Road Ahead The Firm’s commitment to community revitalization and underserved and low-income households did not begin with the Racial Equity Commitment. Rather, the Racial Equity Commitment was born out of years of leveraging our resources to uplift customers and communities. These experiences include our eforts in Detroit following its bankruptcy, the implementation of our AdvancingCities program across the globe, and the formation of our PolicyCenter to develop evidence-based policy solutions to expand inclusive economic opportunity. Our history of advancing equity has positioned our Firm to execute the complex, multi-faceted $30 billion commitment. INTRODUCTION As our Firm progresses in its commitment, we have realized that this journey is ongoing and will not be limited to fve years. Rather, our work over the past two years has served as a catalyst to realize even more opportunities to advance ENVIRONMENTAL racial equity. Our commitment to closing the racial wealth gap will remain, no matter what headwinds and economic uncertainties we face. SOCIAL We continue to see innovations born out of the Racial Equity Commitment.

For this reason, we are committed to continuing this work and measuring its outcomes to help advance lasting racial APPENDICES equity and make meaningful contributions to closing the racial wealth gap.

Promoting Environmental Sustainability Advancing sustainability is not only about helping the environment, it is also about improving the communities we serve. Persistent changes in global climate patterns and associated extreme weather events present risks to customers, communities and clients. Risks like these threaten personal safety and can cause costly damage to properties, house- holds, and businesses. We believe in the power of communities, governments and business to implement the low-car- bon energy transition as an important part of inclusive economic growth.

Investing in Employee Development Helping our employees advance their skills and professional development is important to our human capital strategy. We invest in our employees’ development through a robust suite of training, leadership development, upskilling and reskilling programs, mentorship initiatives, and performance evaluations. TRAINING We seek to train our employees with the skills needed for today and tomorrow. We prepared our new hire employees for their roles with approximately 34 hours of learning on average over their frst 90 days, and tenured employees take an INTRODUCTION average of approximately 10 hours of voluntary training annually. Employees consumed training in a variety of ways. Over 60% of training was self-paced, and almost 35% was via virtual classroom. The remainder was facilitated in a traditional ENVIRONMENTAL classroom setting. Overall, in 2022, employees completed over 9.7 million courses and over 7.9 million hours of training. Leadership Day training, New York, New York is one example of how the Firm helps employees advance their skills and professional development.
