In a world where sustainability has become a crucial factor in every industry, IK Financial stands as a beacon of eco-conscious business practices in Canada's mortgage sector. Explore how IK Financial has embraced sustainability, showcasing our journey from becoming a fully paperless company to an innovative "Plant a Tree With Every Mortgage Closed" program.
A Bold Leap: The Paperless Transition
In 2020, IK Financial took a significant step towards sustainability by transitioning to a fully paperless operation. This move not only streamlined our processes but also led to the recycling of 420kg (925.94lb) of paper, setting a precedent in the financial industry for environmental responsibility.
Sustainable Partnerships for a Greener Tomorrow
IK Financial's commitment to sustainability extends beyond internal practices to encompass our interactions with clients and partners. By collaborating with local, eco-friendly businesses, we have ensured that all closing gifts - from recycled paper bags and candles to soaps and keychains - leave a minimal environmental footprint. These products, crafted with care and sustainability in mind, underline IK Financial's dedication to not just financial success but also to the well-being of the planet.
Planting Futures: A Tree With Every Mortgage Closed
Perhaps the most impactful initiative of IK Financial is our "Plant a Tree With Every Mortgage Closed" program. Launched in September 2022, this program embodies our commitment to making the world a greener place. By providing each client with an IK branded 'Plant a Tree Kit' at closing, we not only contribute to a healthier environment but also enrich the lives of our valued clients with a living, breathing reminder of their new beginnings.
The environmental benefits of tree planting are immense, from producing oxygen and stabilizing the climate to reducing water runoff and flood severity. But beyond these, the program fosters a sense of community and shared responsibility towards our planet, making each mortgage closing a step towards a greener future.
