Accreditation

Accreditation demonstrates, in quantifiable ways, a commitment to the communities upon which your company relies. Dedication to our standards signals an allegiance to the remitters, the development of their communities, and the families and institutions that support them. Respect and equity inform every decision and the Remit 4 Change values are embedded in the bottom line: fair pricing, transparency, accountability, mission-aligned and socially-responsible investments and strategic and sustainable community reinvestment.

TIGRA has been approached by more than fifty companies; thus far, after extensive negotiations, two companies have agreed to change their policies and practices to meet our standards. By the end of 2010, we expect this number to increase to at least five.

Benefits of Accreditation

A competitive edge, based upon our distinctive and differentiating mark of quality, recognized internationally
Stabilization and development of the communities that drive your business model
A support system to help ensure success and continued compliance, as well as unique insight into the desires and consumption patterns of our base of over 1,500 immigrant groups worldwide.
