Do a deep dive into our sustainability progress by reading our latest report below.
FINANCIAL HEALTH FOR MORE PEOPLE
We strive to enable financial health for more people. We can offer mortgages regardless of the applicant’s type of employment. We gather smaller loans into one to lower monthly payments. We provide flexibility and balance through one of the most popular credit cards in the Nordics. And we make sure people over 60 can stay in their homes longer.
RESPONSIBLE LENDING
NOBA offers tailored personal financial solutions and incorporates strong, responsible lending practices into our operations and throughout the customer journey. Together with financial health, responsible lending is our most important process and a prerequisite for practicing what we preach.
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) AREAS
Through our own operations as well as our value chain, our business impacts the environment, society and people. We also acknowledge that we have to account for this impact on our business, and how it can generate financial risks as well as opportunities.
ESG Steering Document
Our Sustainability Policy is the main document governing sustainability management at NOBA. The Sustainability Policy includes all of NOBA’s material sustainability matters and how these are governed.
Our carbon emissions
We measure our emissions in scope 1, 2 and 3 in order to fully understand our emissions and therefore also fully commit to reducing our emissions throughout our operations.
