Our effort to support the transition towards a low-carbon economy has been awarded the Terra Carta Seal.
The Terra Carta is the foundation for the Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI), which is a charter for businesses to move towards an ambitious and sustainable future. It recognises corporations that demonstrate their commitment to and momentum towards the creation of a climate- and nature-positive future.
The seal is awarded to corporations that drive innovation and leadership in their industry in relation to sustainability and have credible transition roadmaps in place for decarbonisation underpinned by standardised metrics.
“We’re proud and honoured to receive the Terra Carta Seal Award. This is a strong recognition of our efforts in taking a leading role on sustainability in the financial sector. It’s important to remember though, that our sustainability work is a long-term commitment and there is still much to be done,” says Anders Langworth, Head of Group Sustainability.
