KYND Honoured in 2024 ESGFinTech100 for Cyber Risk Leadership

KYND Limited, a leader in cyber risk management, proudly announces its third consecutive inclusion in the 2024 ESGFinTech100, an elite list curated by FinTech Global to recognise top technology firms assisting financial services in overcoming complex ESG challenges. KYND’s consistent presence on this list reflects its commitment to supporting wealth managers, advisers, and clients in identifying and proactively addressing digital risks in a clear, efficient manner.

This year’s selection reaffirms KYND’s importance in addressing cyber risk—a crucial but often underestimated element of ESG. As cyber threats escalate in both volume and complexity, businesses increasingly recognise that robust cybersecurity measures are essential to sustainability, operational resilience, and stakeholder confidence. Within financial services, in particular, effective cyber risk management is now a fundamental part of meeting ESG commitments and safeguarding long-term value.

KYND’s unique technology offers an all-encompassing view of an organisation’s cyber vulnerabilities, highlighting major risks and prioritising mitigation steps. Unlike other tools that depend on vague scoring systems, KYND leverages proprietary data to present an accurate and transparent view of risk. Whether it’s during due diligence, ongoing portfolio oversight, or third-party evaluations, KYND empowers wealth managers and advisers to seamlessly integrate cyber risk management into their ESG frameworks.

Andy Thomas, CEO and Founder of KYND, commented: “We’re so delighted to be awarded with this honour by FinTech Global once more! Cyber risk is rapidly becoming one of the most financially material threats to modern businesses, but its importance in the ESG landscape is still not fully appreciated. At KYND, we’re passionate about helping companies bridge that gap, equipping them with the insights and tools they need to navigate today’s volatile cyber threat environment. Cyber risk management is not just a technical issue; it’s a core element of business resilience and ESG compliance. We will continue to innovate and deliver best-in-class solutions that support our partners in financial services to stay ahead of the curve and safeguard the value and stability of their organisations, as well as the wider cyber ecosystem.”

Richard Sachar, Director of FinTech Global, remarked: “ESG-focused frameworks like CSRD are becoming more common around the world. Financial institutions face mounting requirements for ESG reports and alignment to sustainability targets. The ESGFinTech100 serves as a crucial resource for senior management, helping them identify the leading ESG tech companies. The detailed company profiles offer insights into their solutions, the challenges they address, their operational regions, and more. This guide is essential for any organisation committed to achieving net-zero targets.”

Since last year’s inclusion in ESGFinTech100, KYND has focused on advancing solutions to reimagine cyber risk management within financial services. For more information on KYND’s solutions, visit here.
