IFS launches its latest Sustainability report and Fact Sheet covering progress on key environmental, social and governance topics.

IFS Sustainability Report is designed as a detailed account of IFS approach, priorities, targets and initiatives across environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics. It covers progress against our strategy of excellence in our business, supporting our customers, and making a broader impact.

 

The sustainability report has been prepared in partial alignment with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) as part of IFS’s voluntary early adoption efforts. The report also aligns with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards. Additionally, Selected KPIs have been subject to a limited assurance review by IFS’s Group auditors (EY).

    “As we work towards our 2029 vision, customer centricity is embedded across everything we do. It is not an afterthought – it must be built into how we work, innovate and grow. Our success in achieving our 2029 goals depends on being a great business to work for, work with, and invest in.”
