Connectivity table
The material topics resulting from the 2020 materiality assessment are included in the following connectivity table. This table links the material topics to our key performance indicators, targets, and performance as well as the sections in this annual report that cover each topic.
The topics requiring further attention from FMO, as concluded by the recent materiality assessment, are highlighted in the table by an asterisk (*). This annual report already discloses information on new material topics such as the 'effects of the pandemic', as we anticipated this would be a material topic for our stakeholders and FMO. We will need more time to collect insights on other (new) material topics to understand where improvements need to be made in the future.

- 1 In 2020, FMO introduced a new methodology to account for new investments. The 2019 comparative figures reported in the 2019 Integrated Annual Report have been restated to reflect the new methodology.
- 2 Results are based on the new harmonized joint impact model. No comparative figures are available.
- 3 In 2020, FMO expanded the scope of its target on ESG performance. In 2019, the performance target was limited to a sub-set of 40 new customers classified as high-risk or supported by a Corporate Governance (CG) specialist that were contracted in 2017 or 2018, where FMO was in the lead. In 2020, the scope was expanded to 293 customers consisting of all high-risk customers and those supported by a CG specialist, including investments where another financial institution is in the lead (e.g. IFC, DEG, Proparco, etc.). As a result of the expansion of the scope, there is no comparative figure for 2019.
- 4 In 2020, FMO introduced this as an indicator to reflect the additional COVID-19 support we have provided our customers since the start of the pandemic. In 2019, the pandemic did not yet pose a major problem to our customers. A comparative figure is therefore not applicable. This indicator will be reported as long as FMO deems it necessary to support its customers in this way.
- 5 Figures include assets under FMO's management. Funds that have been sub-delegated to others are excluded, such as Green Climate Fund. In 2019, some of these funds were included in the figures. The 2019 comparative figures have been restated to reflect this change.
- 6 Figures include only FMO invested amounts in line with FMO's target. In 2019, invested amounts through public and mobilized funds were also included. The 2019 comparative figure has been restated to reflect this change.
