B Corps meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.
B Corp measures the whole bank
B Corp Certification is a rigorous, verified performance assessment across 5 areas: Governance, Workers, Customers, Community, Environment, with a minimum score of 80 points, 300+ scored questions, multiple verification rounds, a series of interviews and data provision. The process took us over 12 months to complete.
The combination of third-party verification, public transparency, and legal accountability makes B Corp Certification unique, credible, and significant; it builds trust as it measures what matters most.
Certification is administered by the non-profit global organisation B Lab. Unlike other certifications for businesses, B Lab is unique in its ability to measure a company’s entire social and environmental impact across all operations.
Why it matters
Third party assessments are proof that we can be trusted, that we really are a force for good in banking. Our purpose is to provide ‘Banking for good, for those who do good’, so being a B Corp is proof of our credentials.
