EquiLend has joined the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and launched a new ESG Hub to showcase its commitment to the initiative.

The global financial technology, data and analytics company says the pledge to the UNGC solidifies its dedication to engage in collaborative projects, which advance the broader development goals of the United Nations particularly the Sustainable Development Goals.

Created by EquiLend, the ESG Hub highlights the firms ongoing mission statements, established committees and partnerships and future committee events.

It will showcase news and insights from EquiLend staff, informing the latest on global environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters. This includes news from the Charity Committee, the Diversity and Inclusion Committee and the ESG Committee.

The UNGC is a corporate sustainability initiative with nearly 21,000 corporate participants and other stakeholders across 179 countries.

As part of the UNGC commitment, EquiLend employees will have the opportunity to participate in the UNGC Academy, allowing staff to engage in unlimited courses to increase their knowledge of ESG-related initiatives.

Brian Lamb, CEO of EquiLend, says: Since our firm was formed in 2001, just one year after the UNGC launched, we have embraced ESG principles.

In joining the UNGC, we are demonstrating on a global level our commitment to implementing their core Ten Principles and encouraging corporate governance policies more broadly among our industry peers.
