LONDON, March 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Nium, the leader in real-time cross-border payments, today announced its partnership with Secret Escapes, one of the world’s leading luxury travel and experiences companies, to deliver enhanced payment services for its global network of hotel partners.

Increased acceptance rates, better protection against fraud, and the ability to get money back for undelivered services are also among the benefits to Secret Escapes’ hotel customers.

Tanith Langford, Director of Financial Operations at Secret Escapes, said: “At a time when hotels are grappling with inflation and evolving consumer expectations, expensive, rigid, and lengthy payment processes are the last thing they need. Our partners are a crucial part of our business, and we are constantly striving for ways to make their lives easier. With Nium, we are providing more flexibility and choice for our providers, in turn driving better deals for our members. To us, it’s all about adding value to our members’ lives and our partners’ businesses, now and in the future.”

Spencer Hanlon, Global Head of Travel Payments at Nium, said: “For too long, the travel industry has retrofitted outdated payment methods to its unique ecosystem of travellers, tourism suppliers, and third-party vendors. Our partnership with Secret Escapes is yet another excellent example of how virtual card payment solutions are driving the travel industry towards a better future, for the benefit of all its participants. I look forward to watching our partnership grow and continuing to deliver innovative solutions at the forefront of travel and fintech together.”

South Pole: New report reveals ‘financial cakeism’: financial institutions continue to decarbonise but will not reduce their exposure to fossil fuels

Published

on

By

LONDON, April 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Financial institutions (FIs) worldwide are attempting to decarbonise, but are still reluctant to reduce their fossil fuel investments, according to a new report by South Pole, which surveyed sustainability executives from 350 financial sector firms across 13 countries.

Despite existing net zero guidance from the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ) and the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the findings of South Pole’s 2024/25 Net Zero report indicate many FIs are taking selective steps towards decarbonisation.

The report reveals that nearly three-quarters (72%) of surveyed FIs have no intention of reducing their fossil fuel exposure over the next 10 years. Almost a third (27%) are choosing to make more conservative claims regarding their net zero strategy or green credentials. The report also highlights that 47% of financial institutions cite unclear regulation as a barrier to their net zero progress.

At the same time, almost half (44%) of FIs are planning to increase their exposure to green assets in the next 10 years, and nearly 80% of FIs find companies with a climate transition plan more attractive to finance. On top of this, the majority (88%) said they expect to “increase” their levels of engagement with their portfolio companies on decarbonisation in “the next two years”, with many (44%) saying they expect to increase this engagement “significantly”. The majority (86%) report to be on track or partially on track to meet net zero commitments.

Dr Daniel Klier, CEO of South Pole said: “The survey results demonstrate that financial institutions continue to back investments in green infrastructure and are willing to increase their exposure to climate-resilient assets and portfolio companies. However, it is also clear that the sector is no longer taking an active role in shifting the balance and will continue to finance fossil fuels. Financial institutions want to have their cake and eat it too.”

He added: “While the financiers surveyed continue to drive climate-related engagement with their clients, it also becomes clear that financial institutions have to walk a tightrope, balancing the long-term resilience and efficiency of their business against returns for investors in the short term. It is important to embrace the positive tipping points created by new, cleaner, and more competitive technologies; but the sector is running major transition and physical risks when it delays its response to obvious climate tipping points.”

Dame Inga Beale, South Pole’s Chair of the Board, commented: “Insurance companies have long been leaders in risk management, and the latest South Pole report shows how they are often ahead of other financial institutions in navigating the challenges of decarbonisation. Notably, the highest percentage of respondents enacting ‘more stringent decarbonisation requirements’ were from the insurance sector. This focus on sustainability is an essential risk mitigation strategy to hedge against climate-related impacts on insured assets. Those who proactively manage risk today will be better positioned for success tomorrow.”
