This award highlights GTCO’s steadfast dedication to excellence, which extends beyond providing cutting-edge financial services and increasing value for its stakeholders to enhancing lives and continuously looking for new ways to promote constructive social change.
When announcing the Award, Euromoney emphasised the scope and influence of GTCO’s CSR programs, which include financial inclusion, community development, health, and education. Guarantee Trust has led with innovation and service quality throughout the years, but it has also continuously shown a strong commitment to using CSR to create shared value and have a good impact.
