Since the commencement of its operations, Universal Credit has adhered to the principles of sound corporate governance and responsible business practices. In 2015, the United Nations adopted the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Universal Credit supports joint efforts to combat adverse climate change, including through financial support of projects aimed at the transition to low-carbon energy.
As a partner of the International Finance Corporation (IFC) in the field of housing microfinance, the Company provides loans for energy-efficiency measures and has developed a dedicated credit product, “Green Loan,” aimed at financing and promoting the development of the Green Economy of the Kyrgyz Republic.
Particular attention is paid to responsible and green financing, support for small and medium-sized enterprises, ensuring the accessibility and quality of financial services for citizens in the regions of the country, as well as improving the level of financial literacy of the population and fostering social responsibility.
Universal Credit fully supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are aimed at addressing the most pressing economic, environmental, and social challenges facing the world. Within the scope of its activities, Universal Credit seeks to make a meaningful contribution to their achievement, to promote this approach, and to advance the relevant green agenda at its level. We see our contribution in integrating the SDGs into our strategy and implementing initiatives aimed at achieving these Goals.
