Kuwait Finance House (KFH), in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has launched the implementation phase of its Sustainability Action Plan. This milestone marks the transition from diagnostics and planning to concrete action, embedding sustainability into three priority areas: SME Finance, Procurement, and Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM).

This initiative also highlights the increasing focus on sustainable financing within the financial sector in Kuwait and the region, showcasing how financial institutions can move beyond compliance to contribute to long-term economic growth and resilience.

Through this collaboration with UNDP, KFH demonstrates how sustainability can be effectively integrated into business operations to generate both business value and broader development impact. UNDP will continue to support Kuwait’s financial sector in advancing sustainable finance as a driver of business value and sustainable development.
