Environment, social and governance at SD Worx
Sustainability beyond compliance

ESG at the heart of our business

“We do not only see ESG as a reporting requirement, but as a strategic lever for strengthening our organisation and supporting our customers.”
— Kelly Lespinoy, Chief Legal & Compliance Officer .
