Changing for the better.

We want to change things for the better. The EOS Group has defined its sustainability goals in its Corporate Responsibility (CR) strategy. It lends structure to our commitment and encourages us to act even more responsibly.
A green world flourishes with plants as two individuals promote sustainability - one painting a heart, the other standing on a small ladder, symbolizing care and progress.

Intro

‘For us, debt collection means taking responsibility – not only for the company’s own employees and clients, but also for consumers, society and the entire debt collection industry. In short, changing for the better.’

Sustainability Strategy and Goals

Receivables management means taking responsibility

We are successful in business because we embrace change and take responsibility for all that we do. We want to change things for the better for our clients and employees, but also for consumers, our industry, and society.

Sustainability is an integral part of our corporate responsibility. Our CR activities go beyond environmental protection. As an international finance service provider, we are especially committed to social responsibility and corporate governance.

Our special concerns are divided into four fields of action within our CR strategy: Responsible collection, Joint progress, Financial sustainability & Environmental protection.

Materiality as starting point for our sustainability strategy

EOS further elaborated its CR strategy with the involvement of internal and external experts and developed a materiality matrix in 2022. It represents the most important sustainability topics for our external stakeholders, as well as for EOS, and forms the basis for the future direction of EOS' sustainability strategy.

Global responsibility: The UN Global Compact

The EOS Group joined the United Nations Global Compact, the world’s largest pact for corporate responsibility, in 2021. As a member, we pledge our commitment to the compact’s 10 principles on human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. Each new member first must derive its own goals from the 10 principles. We did so in the past year, identifying our goals from the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to which we can make the most effective contribution. The SDGs we selected, along with the associated key figures and goals are important benchmarks in our corporate responsibility strategy. As required by the Compact, we will report on our progress once a year in our “Communication on Progress” (COP).
Overview of eight UN Global Compact icons showing #3 good health and well-being, #4 quality education, #5 gender equality, #10 reduced inequalities, #16 peace, justice and strong institutions, #17 partnerships for the goals, #13 climate actions.
През 2021 г. EOS Груп се присъедини към Глобалния договор на ООН, най-големият пакт за корпоративна отговорност в света. Като член, ние поемаме ангажимента си към 10-те принципа на договора относно правата на човека, труда, околната среда и антикорупцията. Всеки нов член първо трябва да изведе собствените си цели от 10-те принципа. Направихме това през изминалата година, като идентифицирахме целите си от 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) на ООН, за които можем да дадем най-ефективен принос. Целите, които избрахме, заедно със свързаните с тях ключови цифри и стандарти са важни показатели в нашата CR стратегия. Както се изисква от договора, ние ще представяме нашия напредък веднъж годишно в нашето „Съобщение за напредъка“ (СН).
