KUALA LUMPUR: Aligned with its long-term commitment to drive the national transition towards a low-carbon economy, Hong Leong Bank is looking to co-create innovative business solutions with visionary sustainability changemakers, with the goal of revitalising and contributing towards the circular economy.
Based on this, there are three challenge statements that organisations can choose to tackle – namely ‘Enhancing Green Building & Sustainable Infrastructure Solutions’, ‘Reimagining How Goods are Produced for SMEs’, and ‘Exploring Innovative Solutions in Waste Management’. Over the years, HLB has consistently supported businesses in adopting environmentally-conscious practices in their operations. A prime example of this is the Bank providing guidance and support to sustainability-focused social enterprises such as Refiller Mobile and Green Hero through HLB Jumpstart. This is where the Bank provides support such as advisory, marketing expertise, and data analysis services to social enterprises, enabling them to be economically-resilient and grow their businesses.
