Sustainability Inclusion Made Possible

Our Vision

Programme SIRIUS is an industry-led initiative, supported by industry partners including Ant International, Gprnt (an initiative by the Monetary Authority of Singapore), the International Finance Corporation, and Asia-Pacific fintech leaders, that aims to facilitate micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in their journey towards sustainability.
‍
It fosters open industry dialogues where like-minded industry partners can exchange ideas on sustainability innovations and share best practices to support MSMEs on their sustainability journey, helping their transition into a low-carbon economy, advancing their accessibility to sustainability financing, and uplifting MSMEs with new growth opportunities.

The Importance of Sustainability Inclusion

Micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) represent:

90%

of global businesses

50%

of global employment

Data from The World Bank SME Finance Report (2019)

And they are challenged by limited resources and face a complex sustainability reporting landscape.
MSMEs must not fall behind in the transition to an inclusive and sustainable economy.

Our Mission

Through digital innovations and industry partnerships, we foster an open forum where participants could exchange ideas and provide feedback on the following areas:

Leverage digital platforms and digital pathways to facilitate merchants with the discovery and access of trusted MSME sustainability data

Enhance MSME sustainability mindsets and capacities to adopt activities with positive environmental and social impacts, including climate change mitigation and adaptation

Suggestions to global policymakers with the aim of strengthening public-private dialogue in digital sustainable financing for global MSMEs
