This is well reflected in the way we engage our customers and in our internal processes. A large number of our ATMs run on solar power, our offices are fitted with energy-efficient bulbs, our waste disposal practices are very climate-friendly. Further, we are very keen to assist customers who are focused on renewable energy, by extending credit to their businesses at affordable rates. These are just some of our numerous ESG measures.
