Sustainability report

Columbia Group has released its latest sustainability report highlighting the importance of its people who are described as the "backbone" of the company. CEO of Columbia Group, Mark O'Neil, said: "Our people are the backbone and raison d'etre for what we do and how we do it, and that is why we put their consideration at the front, middle and end of everything we do. Without absolute focus on the 'S' in ESG we cannot achieve the 'E' or the 'G'". Last year brought numerous global challenges, from geopolitical conflicts to the escalating climate crisis, O'Neil highlighted in the report. In response, the company has continued to evolve, embedding ESG principles into its business strategy and risk management framework.
