Meelo: A fintech committed to responsible financing

Meelo, an innovative fintech company, recently achieved the prestigious B Corp certification, marking its commitment to sustainability and social responsibility. Founded in 2017 by Laurent Kocinski and Mohamed Hadiri, Meelo quickly emerged on the market with a clear mission: to offer businesses a global and innovative solution to fight fraud and unpaid debts, while protecting end consumers. After four years of continuous efforts, Meelo reached another milestone in January 2024 by becoming a certified B Corp.

B Corp certification

B Corp certification process was rigorous. It involved several steps, from submitting a detailed questionnaire to carefully auditing its business practices. The motivation behind this approach was clear: Meelo aspired to have a positive impact in all areas of its activity, whether at the level of governance, employees, communities, customers or the environment.
 
This certification aligns perfectly with the mission and fundamental values ​​of Meelo, which wishes to build a more responsible financing universe and take into account not only the needs of its clients, but also those of end consumers.
 
Meelo did not need to undertake any specific initiatives to obtain B Corp certification , it was above all necessary to formalize and rigorously follow all the actions and initiatives that already existed but had never been formalized.
 
The company then implemented a series of practices aimed at improving its sustainability and social impact. This includes creating a pleasant working environment for its employees, as well as promoting transparency and ethical innovation for its customers and partners.
 
This formalization also resulted in the official inclusion of our three commitments in our statutes, which we undertake to follow meticulously in all our actions.

The first impacts

The impact of Meelo's B Corp certification is not limited to its own operations. By encouraging its partners and customers to follow this example, Meelo has triggered a positive domino effect in its ecosystem. A partner and a client have already taken steps to obtain B Corp certification, thus strengthening the overall impact of this initiative.

Looking ahead, Meelo is committed to further strengthening its commitment to sustainability and social responsibility. The company plans to strengthen its support for associations and institutions fighting against over-indebtedness, while ensuring that its financing and long-term rental solutions contribute to promoting inclusiveness.

In conclusion, Meelo’s B Corp certification marks an important step in its journey towards more responsible financing. It demonstrates the company's commitment to sustainability and social responsibility, while inspiring others in the industry to follow suit. Meelo invites everyone to support its efforts towards a more sustainable and equitable future for all.
