ACA Group (ACA) is proud to announce that we have been recognized on the prestigious ESGFinTech100 list for 2025, marking our position as an industry leader in sustainable finance technology. This annual ranking, curated by FinTech Global, highlights the most innovative companies helping financial institutions meet their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.
The ESGFinTech100 list serves as a definitive guide for senior leaders seeking impactful ESG technology providers. This year’s selection process evaluated over 600 companies worldwide, focusing on their ability to address industry challenges, deliver measurable ESG impact, and advance long-term sustainability objectives.
As global finance increasingly prioritizes sustainability, firms face mounting pressure to strengthen ESG commitments. Regulatory frameworks such as the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and evolving standards across the U.S., the UK, the UAE, and beyond, demand greater transparency and accountability. At the same time, investors and consumers are aligning with companies that share their ethical and environmental values.
