Adding to its list of ecologically sound deeds, It has also introduced the “Give Goa” program, which aims to encourage social responsibility among GIM students and work toward a more inclusive society. The “Sustainability Horizon” newsletter, which is published by this centre, aims to address the sector’s altering dynamics with regard to environmental sustainability.

Prof. Ajit Parulekar, Director of GIM, said “GIM has always been conscious about its impact on the ecosystem and has continuously strived to reduce its carbon footprint. With the intellectual capabilities we are endowed with, we strive to ensure that “Grass is always Greener on our Side”. This Green Gown Award is a reassurance of our collective efforts towards sustainability.”

The judging panel consists of representatives from sector organisations in each region.

Fiona Goodwin, CEO of EAUC and Green Gown Awards Secretariat, says, “We hope that universities and colleges from all around the world will take inspiration from our winners and raise the bar on climate action. From India to Colombia to Malaysia and Canada and many more, our winners show how important it is for universities and colleges to tackle the climate and biodiversity crisis.”

RBI releases a regulatory framework for digital lending- Quote by Mr. Saurabh Puri, Chief Business Officer, Credit cards, Zaggle

“Digital Lending Applications (DLA) powered by Fintechs and Regulated Entities has brought in innovation in the financial system. The Digital Lending Applications uses the power of data and tech capabilities to make the customer experience of borrowing seamless. Lenders and borrowers benefit from seamless customer acquisition, credit assessment, loan approval, disbursement, repayment, and customer service. However, there are certain concerns that have emerged that include breach of data privacy, unfair business conduct, charging of exorbitant interest rates, and unethical recovery practices. RBI’s guidelines on digital lending is a step towards curbing these concerns. We at Zaggle feel that these guidelines will bring in transparency and enhance customer confidence. The guidelines also demarcate the roles and responsibilities of Regulated Entities and LSPs. Overall, this will help the industry grow in orderly fashion; yet encouraging innovation.”-Mr. Saurabh Puri, Chief Business Officer, Credit cards, Zaggle
