The "Equator Principles"

A financial industry benchmark for determining, assessing and managing social & environmental risk in project financing

Carbon thinking

FirstRand has adopted the Equator Principles - a globally recognised benchmark for managing environmental and social risk in project financing.

The Principles will enable FirstRand to identify clients whose environmental practices may be unacceptable, thereby avoiding or reducing the negative impacts on ecosystems and communities affected by projects.

FirstRand is continually exploring ways to address environmental concerns with all its stakeholders and strives towards carbon neutrality.
