Lyndsey Higgins, Head of Business Services at RIMES comments: “Sustainable business is increasingly important to our investment management clients, our employees and other stakeholders. By offsetting our total carbon emissions, we have taken a big step forward in our broader Environmental, Social and Governance goals, which are being driven internally by our steering committee.
