Arihant Capital Launches “Earth Campaign” in Collaboration with Young Environmentalist Prasiddhi Singh
Mumbai, Maharashtra, June 5, 2023 — Arihant Capital, one of India’s leading financial services firms, has officially launched its “Earth Campaign” in collaboration with Prasiddhi Singh, an award-winning 10-year-old environmental activist. The campaign focuses on tree plantation drives and creating awareness about sustainable practices to combat climate change and environmental degradation.
A Commitment to Sustainability
Shruti Jain, Chief Strategy Officer at Arihant Capital, expressed her excitement for the initiative, saying, “We are proud to partner with Prasiddhi Singh as we work together towards creating a greener and more sustainable future. Through our tree plantation drives, we’re not only contributing to environmental conservation but also improving the overall health of our planet.”
Shruti emphasized the importance of businesses stepping up their environmental efforts: “Every company must embed sustainability into its business strategy and avoid greenwashing, which is prevalent across industries. At Arihant, we’re continuously learning, improving, and making every possible effort towards protecting our planet.”
Tree Plantation Drives Across India
As part of the Earth Campaign, Arihant Capital successfully held a tree plantation drive in Indore over the weekend with young participants. Ms. Jain commented, “Educating children about the environment is crucial for the future of the planet.” These plantation drives aim to engage youth and stakeholders in meaningful conversations about sustainable living.
Over the next three months, Arihant Capital plans to hold additional plantation drives, promoting dialogue on eco-friendly practices and sustainability. The initiative also focuses on raising awareness about environmental issues such as climate change, deforestation, and the importance of making conscious choices.
Sustainable Investing and ESG Practices
In addition to promoting environmental awareness, Arihant Capital educates investors on the importance of sustainable investing and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) investing. The company assists environmentally conscious investors in building sustainable portfolios by identifying companies committed to reducing their environmental impact.
Technological Innovation for a Greener Future
Arihant Capital is also leading the way in technological innovation with the launch of its new onboarding platform. The platform leverages machine learning technologies to streamline the client onboarding process, featuring secure identity verification through NSDL (National Securities Depository Limited) and UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority of India) databases. The eKYC process reduces paper usage and contributes to the company’s efforts to reduce its carbon footprint.
“We are committed to enhancing our clients’ experience while promoting sustainability. Our paperless eKYC platform and mobile trading app, which includes an integrated reporting system, are examples of how we’re reducing our environmental footprint while making investing simple and accessible,” said Ms. Jain.
Reducing Waste and Promoting Sustainable Practices
As part of its ongoing sustainability efforts, Arihant Capital has introduced several initiatives to reduce waste and its carbon footprint. These include educational campaigns on reducing plastic usage, the adoption of reusable alternatives to plastic bottles, and the installation of energy-efficient LED lights across its offices. The company has also implemented point-of-use (POU) water filtration systems to eliminate single-use plastic bottles.
Furthermore, Arihant Capital has adopted a meat-free policy across all its offices and events. This reflects the company’s commitment to promoting sustainability and compassion by not serving meat or animal-based foods at any company events.
A Sustainable Future for All
Through these various initiatives, Arihant Capital is reinforcing its dedication to sustainability and contributing positively to both the financial and environmental health of the planet. By fostering an environmentally responsible culture, the company aims to inspire other organizations to integrate sustainability into their operations.
