Arowana recertifies as a Certified B Corporation under B Lab's new global standards
Arowana maintains its B Corp certification, first achieved in 2018, for the third consecutive cycle
Achievement reinforces Arowana's core purpose of growing people, companies and values
BRISBANE, Oct. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arowana, the leading Certified B Corporation global investment group, is pleased to announce that it has successfully recertified as a Certified B Corporation. The recertification affirms Arowana's continued commitment to the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency.
Arowana has held B Corp certification since 2018, and this latest recertification was completed under B Lab's new standards, which apply to all companies recertifying from 2026 onwards.
Arowana's core purpose: growing people, companies and values
As a global investment group, Arowana channels capital and operational support into enterprises that contribute to environmental resilience, foster equitable opportunities and deliver lasting value for all stakeholders.
Kevin Chin, Founder and Executive Chairman of Arowana, said: "Recertifying under a materially tougher standard matters more to us than the certification itself. The new framework removes the ability to trade off one area of performance against another, and that is exactly as it should be. Meeting it across our group is a reflection of the work our teams do every day, not a badge we applied for.
We remain steadfastly committed to our core impact-driven purpose of growing people, companies and values, and to demonstrating that purpose and profit can thrive together."
