New Sustainability Section On Your Credit Report

We're pleased to announce in early 2023 we'll be adding a new section to our company credit reports on 'Corporate Sustainability'.

We all recognise that corporate responsibility and sustainability have become critical factors in the decisions a business may take on who they partner or trade with. This new section on Vision-net is designed to give you an insight into each company using the power of Synesgy the international standard reporting tool on corporate sustainability.

Synesgy is a proprietary solution which is the product of many years work in corporate sustainability, and is directly aligned to the latest GRI's. It was designed to help companies understand their Environmental, Social and Governance impact and we are delighted that his is now available in Ireland.

How does this affect your credit report?

If your company has already completed their Synesgy questionnaire, please send us on proof of your certificate today. This will add creditability to your report, letting visitors see you are Synesgy 'Certified' and sustainably aware.

If you have yet to run a Synesgy sustainability questionnaire on your business, you can run one today. It takes approx. one hour and will let you easily monitor your progress, identify areas for improvement and report on sustainability activities, with ease.
