So is Wal-Mart truly cleaning up?

Doubts persist as on one hand, it talks of reducing CO2 emissions by 2.5 MMT by 2013, on the other, its planned additions of 680 stores by 2008-end alone would add 1 MMT of CO2!

Organic is the way to go forward

As an international bank of repute; Standard Chartered has set unprecedented benchmarks in the banking arena, be it investments in the community development programme, investment of $500 million for microfinance, $800 million investment for renewable energy, et al. It’s the recognition of these efforts that has earned it ‘The Banker-Bank of the Year 2006- Global CSR’ award. As Mervyn Davies, Chairman, Standard Chartered, points “We want to be known as a responsible business and are determined to lead by example in the markets in which we operate. We realise that we must find ways to sustain economic growth without damaging the environment and society.” Small wonder that Standard Chartered in India have combined their global capability, deep local knowledge and creativity to outperform their competitors.

Their core strategy is organic growth, but then acquisitions do play an important role in Standard Chartered’s action plan. Their recent acquisitions in Pakistan and Taiwan have provided them new platform for growth. Their expectation of double-digit income momentum across all geographies is bound to see the light of the day with these acquisitions.
