Bupa Acıbadem Insurance Publishes Its First Report in Compliance with Türkiye Sustainability Reporting Standards
A leading company in the Turkish health insurance sector, Bupa Acıbadem Sigorta has announced the publication of its first sustainability report prepared in compliance with the Türkiye Sustainability Reporting Standards (TSRS), aiming to transparently share its sustainability commitments.
Bupa Acıbadem Insurance has released its TSRS-Compliant Sustainability Report, covering its activities for the year 2024. As the only insurance company in Türkiye specializing exclusively in health insurance, Bupa Acıbadem Insurance once again demonstrates its strong commitment to sustainability through this report.
Prepared in line with the TSRS framework published by the Public Oversight, Accounting and Auditing Standards Authority (KGK) in the Official Gazette dated 29 December 2023 and numbered 32414 (M), the report provides comprehensive disclosures particularly on governance, strategy, risk management, and targets related to climate change.
Commenting on the report, Aslıhan Duymaz, CEO of Bupa Acıbadem Insurance, stated:
“As the impacts of climate change deepen on a global scale, issues such as human health, gaps in inclusivity, and economic resilience are becoming increasingly visible and interconnected. As the insurance sector, we do not merely provide risk coverage; we also play a critical role in building sustainable, resilient, and healthy societies. In this new era where sustainable finance serves as both a lever and a value creation driver for companies, we will continue to reshape our business model around environmental, social, and governance values.”
Comprehensive Climate Risk Analysis
The report evaluates the potential impacts of climate change on the healthcare sector through detailed scenario analyses. Taking Türkiye-specific conditions into account, the analyses address eight key risk assumptions, including rising temperatures, extreme weather events, water scarcity, and vector-borne diseases.
Reducing Environmental Impact Through Digitalization
Bupa Acıbadem Insurance enhances customer experience while reducing its environmental footprint through digital healthcare solutions. Products such as the Blua digital health platform and ONS online health insurance contribute to lowering carbon emissions by reducing patient travel
The company’s LEED Gold–certified office building, I-REC–certified electricity consumption, and regular emissions reporting form key pillars of this process. Beyond environmental actions, Bupa Acıbadem Insurance adopts a holistic approach to sustainability by rewarding employees’ individual well-being and environmental contributions through its Healthy Cities program, while integrating volunteer-based social impact projects into this framework.
