Whilst every payments leader would most likely agree that ESG is important to them, the reality is that for many, it languishes at the lower end of the Board and Exec agendas. What's striking is that there is a growing cohort of companies who have successfully woven meaningful ESG initiatives into their core agenda with outstanding results across the board. I'm proud to lead this Working Group and to have the opportunity to highlight these insights, drawing out the relationship with value creation. We will then provide practical and actionable guidance that can help every company, however far they are on their ESG journey.
The ESG Working Group had a successful in-person project meeting to kick off their 2023 programme. The group mapped out an action plan to record several case-studies at PAY360 from members who wanted to showcase their ESG initiatives. This will go towards building campaign materials to promote ESG within the industry. The meeting was kindly hosted by working group member algbra. Join the ESG Working Group to be a part of shaping the future of the payments industry. Together, we can make a difference
