Our ESG Commitment
As the financial industry adopts ESG policies and processes as part of its business model, it is also our commitment to ensure that we also integrate ESG into our business model too.
The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals agreed in 2015, mean more to Benefactum than just pictures. From suppliers, partners and clients we ensure that Gender Equality and Racial Equity are at the top of our agenda. The SDGs apply not just to how we do business, but also to how we operate using ESG policies as our guide.
We support the following goals specifically and they are reflected in our ESG commitment:
