Sustainable Square is pleased to announce that it has become a service provider signatory to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). The company joins a network of changemakers committed to supporting the investment community to embrace environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations in investment decision-making.
The UN-supported PRI network is comprised of asset owners, investment managers, and services who have committed to implementing six aspirational principles and consequently contributing to the development of a more sustainable global financial system.
Group CEO & Founding Partner Monaem Ben Lellahom said this milestone is a testament to the company’s commitment to drive positive change and continually raise the bar in supporting clients to conduct sustainable business.
“We are deeply honoured to join the esteemed network of organizations committed to responsible investment as a UN PRI service provider,” he said.
“This strategic partnership not only solidifies our relationship with the investment community but also strengthens our position as a leading consultancy firm, uniquely equipped to guide the investment community in navigating the evolving ESG landscape,” Monaem added.
A global leader in sustainability with 11 years of operation, Sustainable Square has progressively aligned all its offerings to sustainability frameworks – including the Principles of Responsible Investing – with customised products and services that empower clients to redefine and achieve impact for all stakeholders.
Chief Risk, Strategy and Governance Officer at Oman International Development and Investment Company (Ominvest) Waleed Nasser Al Yarubi congratulated the boutique consultancy firm on the partnership with UN PRI. Ominvest is a long-standing client of Sustainable Square and one of the leading investment companies in the MENA region.
“Ominvest congratulates Sustainable Square for becoming a signatory of UN PRI as a service provider. Sustainable Square has been a significant partner in strategically integrating sustainability into our business. Joining UN PRI will only enhance Sustainable Square’s performance and in turn benefit Ominvest,” he observed.
Sustainable Square’s Sustainability & ESG Advisor, Hussein Gubran, emphasized that this move further underscores the company’s unwavering commitment to sustainable value creation for its clients, society, and the planet. He highlighted the partnership’s immense value in providing Sustainable Square with valuable insights, resources, and collaborative opportunities.
“We eagerly look forward to collaborating with other sustainability-minded organizations and working towards a more responsible and equitable investment landscape globally,” said Hussein.
Established in 2006, the PRI supports an international network of signatories in understanding the investment implications of ESG factors and incorporating them into their investment and ownership decisions. By signing the UN PRI, Sustainable Square demonstrates its commitment to responsible investment practices and its contribution to creating a more sustainable future for all.
