Supporting Sustainable Finance
TISE Sustainable is our comprehensive and reputable sustainable finance segment which enables the flow of capital into investments that promote environmental, social or sustainable activities. Since its launch in July 2021, sustainable issuers, green bonds, sustainable bonds, sustainability-linked bonds and humanitarian catastrophe bonds have been admitted to TISE Sustainable.
In 2022, there were new admissions from brands such as Dutch telecommunications group VodafoneZiggo, the UK’s leading independent leasing, fleet management and vehicle outsourcing business Zenith, and renewable energy infrastructure investor Bluefield.
Whilst we continue to list securities which are not within the sustainable sector, we remain mindful of the need to appropriately manage and support issuers and investors with their transition to a low carbon and sustainable economy. Our new transition offering caterers for transition bonds and transition issuers within our sustainable finance segment, TISE Sustainable, further supporting initiatives to secure a just transition to net-zero.

Managing our Environmental Impact
As part of our commitment to deliver a business model which is sustainable over the longer term, the Group enrolled on ESI Monitor’s FutureTracker service at the beginning of 2023.
It is a recognised platform, providing a framework for us to measure, manage, minimise and benchmark the impact of our business operations on the environment. FutureTracker gives us the tools to work collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders to develop a pathway to operate our organisation in a more sustainable manner.
We are at the start of this process, with the first step being to establish an emissions benchmark for TISE, and will provide regular progress updates on our journey towards a more sustainable future.
Supporting Economic Growth
TISE provides opportunities for small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) to access the capital markets with a tailored offering which meets the needs of a growing business. With a proportionate and straightforward approach, and a total cost of listing of approximately one third of the cost of the traditional marketplaces, TISE is an ideal ‘incubator’ allowing business owners to scale up their companies sooner than had previously been possible. This brings broader societal benefits through the creation of jobs and new opportunities in the issuer's domestic markets.
In addition to supporting business growth and acquisitions, international retail and food service operator SandpiperCI uses its TISE listing to raise its profile and enable wider participation in the ownership of the business. With over 80 stores across the Channel Islands, Gibraltar and Isle of Man, SandpiperCI works with over 40 local suppliers helping to support small businesses and providing access to international retail brands on our high streets.

Partnering with our Communities
Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme helps us to support and engage with the communities in which we live and work. Our staff choose a local community project or not-for-profit organisation to partner with each year and provide support through both fundraising and employee volunteering days. All funds raised by our staff through CSR activities are matched by TISE.
TISE provides corporate sponsorship for a number of not-for-profit organisations and community events, such as, the Extraordinary Islanders campaign in the Isle of Man, the Social Investment Fund’s COVID-19 appeal in Guernsey, the Guernsey Literary Festival and Guernsey Raiders RFC.
Our success is founded in the quality of our staff. At TISE we have a true passion for providing the right support for our staff so that they can achieve their full potential.
