Better Health for All

0

X Financial operates as a financial technology company facilitating consumer loans. The provided articles focus exclusively on its financial performance, loan facilitation, and general regulatory compliance within the fintech sector. There is no evidence in the articles to suggest that the company's principal goods or services, revenue streams, operational activities, or any related initiatives have a direct or indirect impact on health outcomes, nor do they involve health-related products, services, or programs. Consequently, no specific, concrete data points are available to assess X Financial against any of the 'Better Health for All' KPIs, leading to the omission of all KPIs.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

X Financial's Xiaoying Credit Loan had an APR range of 10.02% to 24.23% in 2024.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

0

X Financial is a financial technology company that facilitates loans. Its business model does not involve the procurement or trade of physical commodities, raw materials, or manufacturing. Consequently, the provided articles contain no information relevant to fair trade certifications, supply chain audits, child/forced labor incidents, supply chain traceability, remediation processes for sourcing violations, ethical sourcing clauses in supplier contracts, high-risk material sourcing, or supplier diversity spend related to physical goods. Therefore, all KPIs under Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing are not applicable to the company's operations as described.

Its business model does not involve products requiring cruelty-free certification, animal testing, animal-derived ingredients, animal agriculture, or operations that directly impact wildlife habitats.

Zero Waste & Sustainable Products

0

The provided articles do not contain any specific, quantitative data regarding X Financial's (XYF.US) performance related to zero waste or sustainable products. X Financial is a financial technology company, and its core business of facilitating loans does not typically involve physical products, packaging, or significant waste streams that would be measured by the KPIs in this category. While one article mentions XYF.US's collaboration on a pilot project to improve the recycling of multi-layered plastic films and flexibles, this initiative focuses on developing recycling technology for a specific waste type in the US generally, rather than detailing XYF.US's own waste reduction, product recyclability, or packaging sustainability metrics. No data on XYF.US's operational waste, product design, or supply chain waste management practices is available.
