ESG for Payment Companies: Openway Shares Strategies for a Sustainable Future
According to a global survey, 92% of respondents “expected their bank to actively contribute to preserving the planet” and 62% “would consider switching to an eco-conscious bank”. More than ever, consumer behaviors are influenced by ESG concerns. Payment companies must prove that their values, and also those of their partners and investors, are in line with a social and environmentally aware consumer base. In view of this, organizations are developing business and operational models built on CSR (corporate social responsibility) and/or ESG (environmental, social, and governance), which measures specific goals. OpenWay draws on its own best practices to highlight how payment companies might establish their own CSR and ESG goals, and evaluate practices already in place. ~

OpenWay shares its own best practices to highlight how banks and fintechs can put the environment in payments, focus on social initiatives, and demonstrate their awareness of the bigger picture.
