Using the Paragon +Impact system, which is being adopted by financial institutions and NGOs across the UK, Europe and South Africa, Accuro will be working closely with the Paragon +Impact sustainability team to integrate impact reporting and assessment into its business activities.
Paul Douglas Managing Director – Jersey, Accuro says, “Through our vision of being “a progressive force for good” for our clients, our people and the planet, the need to collaborate with subject matter experts like Paragon +Impact is essential. We are delighted to be one of the first Trust and Fiduciary companies to demonstrate impact management and meaningful reporting against the SDGs to such an evidence-based level, thereby being able to reassure our stakeholders that they are part of a transition to a more sustainable and net positive future”.
