New Report Highlights Equiniti’s Role in Strengthening Financial Resilience and Breaking Down Barriers to Opportunity
Equiniti and The Purpose Coalition have today launched a new Impact Report showcasing how the financial services provider is engaging with key barriers to financial resilience, social mobility, and opportunity across the UK. The report outlines how Equiniti is leveraging its expertise and resources to support individuals, businesses, and communities in building financial stability, which supports greater access to economic opportunity.
As a leading provider of share registration, pension administration, and financial technology solutions, Equiniti serves tens of millions of people and supports some of the world’s largest organisations. With a strong presence in the UK, US and India, Equiniti delivers critical financial services that help businesses and individuals manage risk, build financial resilience, and navigate complex regulatory environments.
Rt Hon Justine Greening, Chair of the Purpose Coalition, emphasised the critical role of the financial sector in driving social mobility:
“Financial resilience has never been more important. Poor financial resilience nearly always accompanies poor social mobility, meaning people cannot achieve key life milestones. The financial services sector has a key role to play in making opportunity more accessible, and this report showcases how Equiniti is rising to the challenge, using its expertise to create real impact.”
The Breaking Down Barriers Commission, led by Nick Forbes CBE, has been instrumental in working with businesses like Equiniti to address structural inequalities.
Nick Forbes CBE, Chair of the Breaking Down Barriers Commission, added: “Under a government focused on economic growth, businesses have a redefined role to act as forces for good in the communities they serve. The financial services sector in particular must work with policymakers to tackle poor financial resilience. This report highlights how Equiniti is expanding digital inclusion, supporting financial resilience, and opening up career opportunities in financial services to diverse talent.”
Equiniti’s commitment to financial resilience is reflected in its ongoing efforts to demystify financial processes, provide accessible savings solutions, and promote community engagement. The company’s Chief Risk Officer, Adam Green, added:
“Financial resilience is essential for enabling people to weather the risks they face in life. With more secure foundations, people develop the confidence needed to break down barriers and pursue their goals and dreams. Equiniti is dedicated to championing inclusive financial services, providing individuals and organisations access to range of products and services which help them manage economic uncertainty and build a more secure future.”
The report provides a blueprint for how businesses in the financial services sector can drive meaningful change. It highlights Equiniti’s digital transformation initiatives and focus on social impact, demonstrating the company’s commitment to reducing financial barriers and fostering a fairer, more inclusive economy.
