Better Health for All

0

No evidence available to assess ALPHA GROUP INTERNATIONAL PLC on Better Health for All.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

0

Alpha Group International PLC provides foreign exchange risk management and payment solutions exclusively to corporates and institutions. The company does not offer lending or deposit services to individual consumers. Therefore, KPIs related to consumer-facing financial services, such as underserved client share, pricing fairness, exploitative fee exposure, inclusion initiatives (loan/insurance book), data accessibility (open banking for consumers), fair lending compliance, wealth building outcomes for consumers, debt burden ratio, geographic inclusion (banking deserts), and product simplicity for consumer disclosures, are not applicable to its business model. While Alpha engages in internal diversity and inclusion programs, social mobility internships, and student mentorship, these do not constitute a share of a loan/insurance book for underserved segments or financial literacy programs for the general public. Alpha launched an anonymous speak-up platform, starting in North America, to report instances of microaggressions, or to recognise and celebrate inclusive behavior.
