Lively Joins the TISFD (Taskforce on Inequality and Social-related Financial Disclosures) Alliance

Lively LLC (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Founder & CEO: Takeshi Taneda; Co-Founder & Co-CEO: Tomomi Miura) joined the Taskforce on Inequality and Social-related Financial Disclosures (TISFD) Alliance in June 2025.

Since its establishment in December 2022, Lively has been promoting consulting services and new business creation for domestic and international companies in sustainability areas such as net zero, circular economy, biodiversity, human rights, and animal welfare.

In recent years, in addition to disclosures related to climate change and biodiversity, there has been increasing interest in how social areas such as inequality and human rights impact corporate value and investment decisions. For companies, a key theme has become how to understand these social-related risks and opportunities and link them to management strategies and information disclosure.

Based on these trends, Lively decided to join TISFD as part of its efforts to strengthen hands-on support for enhancing the corporate value of its clients. Going forward, while keeping a close eye on international discussions and the development of guidance, Lively will work to promote the understanding and implementation of social-related financial disclosures among Japanese companies.

*Taskforce on Inequality and Social-related Financial Disclosures (TISFD) is an international initiative to develop a common approach for companies and financial institutions to accurately understand, manage, and disclose the impact of social inequalities and social-related risks on their businesses and financial conditions. Launched in September 2024, TISFD is working with various stakeholders to develop guidance and frameworks for social information disclosure.

Comment from Lively: 'Lively is honored to join the TISFD Alliance. How to perceive social-related risks and opportunities and link them to corporate value will become an increasingly important management issue. We will work to support the understanding and implementation of these standards in a way that aligns with the practices of Japanese companies, contributing to both a sustainable society and corporate value.'
