People & Planet

 

Two peas in a pod

In the fast-paced world of banking, finance, and tech, the spotlight has always been on profit. However, here at FundApps, we bring a fresh perspective to the table. Our belief is that true success goes beyond just numbers; it involves valuing both people and the planet. This approach not only leads to better business but also aligns with the Triple Bottom Line philosophy, which focuses on shaking up the traditional profit-driven mindset for a more meaningful change. You know what they say, good people, good ethics means good business. 

FundApps, a proud B Corp

As one of the first Tech B Corps in the UK, we’re honoured to have been awarded this certification. We can proudly say we have always been passionate and never lost sight of the bigger picture, even before B Corps were a 'thing’.  We always knew it came from people, from the community and from having a bigger purpose than just profit. We wanted to break the norm. We wanted to make an impact. Achieving this status amplifies our voice to this movement from an industry that stereotypically doesn't share the same vision.

People first

We've put our heart and soul into creating an infrastructure and culture of wellbeing that truly supports FundAppers as individuals and helps them thrive. Our dedication shines through in the various initiatives and investments we've made for our team. Alongside offering flexible work and wellness programs, we empower our team to choose their work environment and access a wide range of resources for physical, mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing.

Narrowing the gap

At FundApps, we've reduced our gender pay gap from 2.9% to 0.6% by embracing flexible work, industry benchmarking, and inclusive hiring and promotion. However, our journey to eliminating the gap entirely continues.The gender pay gap is the gap between what men and women earn on average across an organisation. Not to be confused with equal pay. Despite comprising 26% of the global tech workforce, women lag behind men in earnings, financial stability, and retirement benefits.

Giving back

There is a strong commitment to giving back to the community. We jump at every opportunity to make a positive impact, whether it's providing unlimited volunteering leave, matching donations, or supporting local suppliers. In 2023, we ramped up our community involvement by taking on volunteering projects and making charitable donations totalling £91k.

Carbon Neutral 

We’ve shown we can do it. In 2023, we made a splash to reach neutrality by offsetting 100% of our 2021 emissions. Water droplets on a leaf

We've shown we can do it

FundApps reached neutrality early in 2023 by offsetting 100% of our 2021 emissions with 350 tonnes of carbon dioxide removal.

We rose to the occasion through investing in a line-up of removal projects that support the key technological removal tactics to smash our global climate goals. We owe a lot to our planet. Butterfly on flower

How we're doing it

We're putting our money where our mouth is and investing in a lineup of removal projects that support the key technological removal tactics needed to smash our global climate goals.

At FundApps we’ll be tackling our 2022 emissions with the same flair in 2024. We help all year round to stay carbon neutral. Clouds and trees surrounding the earth

There's always more to do

We'll be tackling our 2022 emissions with the same flair in 2024. We owe to our planet. 

These initiatives, along with our dedication to fostering a culture of inclusivity, participation, and achievement, led to an Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) of 59, labeled as “excellent”, in our May 2023 engagement survey. It's a refreshing change from an industry that doesn't see the same vision.

What is a B Corp?

The B Corporation community is a global movement of individuals harnessing the power of business to create positive change, harmonising both purpose and profit. Certified B Corps are companies that have undergone rigorous evaluation and certification to uphold high standards of social, environmental, human, customer, and ethical performance.

For FundApps, being a B Corp is a commitment to accountability. We view B Corp certification as more than just a periodic evaluation; it is a guiding framework for how we operate and conduct our business on a daily basis.

Latest B Corp report

FundApps has been a certified B Corporation since 2018.

What’s next for FundApps?

Achieving a B Corp certification and being one of the pioneering Fintech B Corps does not signify the end of our journey to become a force for good. We have set lofty aspirations to surpass the 100-point milestone, and we continuously refine the tools and strategies we employ to effectively assess our policies and practices. Each day, we remain mindful that there is always room for improvement. Whether it's enhancing our employee retention rate as we expand, expanding our range of benefits, or raising the bar for our environmental performance, we are committed to pushing boundaries and striving for excellence.
