BAN expands e-Stewards to include R2 practices

摘要

The Basel Action Network has announced that, effective immediately, the e-Stewards standard will now include all the elements of the R2 standard. Requirements for the multi-stakeholder R2 standard have been incorporated into e-Stewards, meaning e-Stewards certifying bodies - currently AQA International, Orion Registrar and QMI-SAI Global — will audit for both the R2 and e-Stewards standards. The move is expected to streamline the auditing process for firms pursuing multiple certifications.
