50 ONE LEVEL CAREERS: Storytelling careers megapack by isy's the snake
Here is yet another career mod pack, but this one has no promotions, you just work and your job level stays at 1. As the title say this mod is best for story telling!
creator's notes-
This mod requires XML Injector by Scumbumbo. You can find it here. Pay attention if you don't already have it for another mod! In that case, you do not need to re-install it. Be sure it is updated for the last patch.
XML Injector is a mod required for some mods to work. So, you install it as any other mod in your Mods folder, no more than one subfolder deep.
This mod has been updated for the version 1.99.305 of the game (second update after Horse Ranch).
It doesn't required any DLC to work. Base game compatible
I've adopted this mod from the amazing ItsKatato who, due to her hiring at EA, couldn't continue to mod. I have made some changes: • I have changes all the pics of the careers — now they all show Sims (please check the credits paragraph at the end to see who was the amazing raccoon who helped me); • I have updated the mod for the Horse Ranch patch; • I have cleared ALL the tuning errors; • Fixed the description of some careers who appeared to be missing.
Now, here we go with the explanation of the mod (originally written by ItsKatato, edited by me):
Katato said: "Have you ever had a story planned out for your sims but you can't find the perfect career for them? Most of the time when I find the career it ends up being a complicated career with a bunch of promotion tasks and extra stuff. Well, I've made a pack of a bunch of single-level careers. All your sim has to do is go to work, that's it. This is perfect for the non-important sims in your life, like the forgotten children of your legacy challenge." In short: those are 50 careers you can use for NPCs Sims or random Sims you do not want to care about. As Amethyst said: "Go to work, make money, leave me alone". Your Sims won't need any task to perform to upgrade and get a promotion, as well as they do not really need an ideal mood to go to work since it won't change their performance. They just go and do their job. And now the list of all careers:
1. Anesthetiologist 2. Cartographer 3. Chiropractor 4. Compliance Officer 5. Data Scientist 6. Dental Hygienist 7. Dentist 8. Diagnostic Medical Sonographer 9. Financial Advisor 10. Financial Manager 11. Genereal Surgeon 12. Genetic Counselor 13. Home Health Aide 14. Information Security Analyst 15. IT Manager 16. Interpreter And Translator 17. Lawyer 18. Marriage And Family Therapist 19. Massage Therapist 20. Mathematician 21. Mechanical Engineer 22. Medical And Health Services Manager 23. Nurse Anesthetist 24. Nurse Practitioner 25. Obstetrician And Gynecologist 26. Occupational Therapist 27. Operations Reasearch Analyst 28. Optometrist 29. Oral And Maxillofacial Surgeon 30. Orthodontist 31. Orthotist And Prosthetist 32. Paralegal 33. Pediatrician 34. Personal Care Aide 35. Phlebotomist 36. Physical Therapist 37. Physical Therapist Assistant 38. Physician 39. Physician Assistant 40. Pilot 41. Podiatrist 42. Prosthodontist 43. Psychiatrist 44. Registered Nurse 45. Respiratory Therapist 46. Software Developer 47. Speech-Language Pathologist 48. Statician 49. Substance Abuse And Behavioral Disorder Counselor 50. Veterinarian 51. Web Developer 52. Wind Turbine Technician
lets give some of our love and support to isy!

Keith Edwards at No Lies Detected:
Last Monday morning, I endured the spectacle of MSNBC hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski defending their post-election pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago, marking their first meeting with Donald Trump in seven years. As they sat there reading from a prepared script, blissfully arrogant and hypocritical, a now-familiar nausea washed over me. It began in late October, when Jeff Bezos — with billions of dollars of business before the federal government — instructed the Washington Post’s publisher to break 36 years of precedent and make no endorsement in the most consequential election of our lives. I felt it again last week when CNN’s Dana Bash bizarrely both-sidesed the somehow unknowable politics of neo-Nazis on the march in Columbus. It was clear to me, as I’m sure it was to you, that Joe and Mika were afraid of what Trump 2.0 would do to them, which Brian Stelter’s CNN later confirmed. (See my YouTube video for my initial reaction).
[...]
Powerful media figures' craven capitulation to government power — before that power is even inaugurated — surely smacks of the preemptive compliance Snyder describes. Since we as Americans have no experience of authoritarian rule, speculating about what comes next is a challenge. To imagine what a returned Trump might do once in power, consider Russia’s experience during Vladimir Putin’s rise: Four days after Putin’s inauguration as Russia’s president in May 2000, Russian federal tax agents raided the offices of NTV, one of the country’s few independent media outlets. NTV had pitilessly mocked the notoriously thin-skinned Putin; once he got to power, he wasted no time deploying the full force of the Russian federal government against it. Under the guise of financial crimes, NTV’s owner was swiftly arrested, imprisoned, and coerced into selling NTV to a pro-government conglomerate who would replace NTV’s journalists and make it a Kremlin mouthpiece. The following month, Putin summoned Russia’s most powerful business figures to the Kremlin where he made clear their new reality: Stay out of politics, and you all can keep your businesses, your wealth, and your freedom. In one fell swoop, the Russian state had cowed its media elites.
If you’re saying, “Well, that’s Russia and this is the United States,” compare the parallels between our country today and the Russia of 2000. Trump of course is pathetically sensitive to media criticism, and he has repeatedly made plain his intention to continue his weaponization of the federal government against his perceived enemies. Senate Republicans are eager to grant him his loyalist hacks as law enforcement officials (so long as they aren't generationally loathsome accused sexual predators!) who will unleash prosecutions against his enemies. As recently as today, Elon Musk — whose willingness to light money on fire extends from Twitter to Trump-Vance 2024 — has menaced MSNBC with a pro-Trump takeover. Meanwhile, social media and tech moguls fell over themselves to ingratiate themselves with Trump after his victory, having essentially shadowbanned political content prior to it. Trump moreover enters office with advantages Putin did not. He will be the first U.S. president with a media company of his own, which before Trump took a sledgehammer to our norms would have been unthinkable (though it worked out in Italy!). He enjoys the unlimited support of Elon Musk and his wholly owned and radicalized X, as well as of an emerging army of Gen Z podcast bros. Lastly, a rightwing legacy media propaganda machine consisting of Fox News, Newsmax, and OAN stands at the ready. A cinematic universe of Made-in-America state-run media served from your TV to your browser to your phone.
Dear Media: Do Nor Obey In Advance.

been waiting for Matt Levine to write more about AI, and he doesn't disappoint
"Wells Fargo is using large language models to help determine what information clients must report to regulators and how they can improve their business processes. “It takes away some of the repetitive grunt work and at the same time we are faster on compliance,” said Chintan Mehta, the firm’s chief information officer and head of digital technology and innovation. The bank has also built a chatbot-based customer assistant using Google Cloud’s conversational AI platform, Dialogflow."
Do you think that Wells Fargo’s customer chatbot pushes customers to open more accounts to meet its quotas? Do you think that its regulatory-reporting chatbot then reports it to regulators? Soon Wells Fargo may be able to generate and negotiate billion-dollar regulatory settlements without any human involvement at all. ... Isn’t this sort of exciting? The widespread use of relatively early-stage AI will introduce new ways of making mistakes into finance. Right now there are some classic ways of making mistakes in finance, and they periodically lead to consequences ranging from funny embarrassment through multimillion-dollar trading loss up to systemic financial crises. Many of the most classic mistakes have the broad shape of “overly confident generalizing from limited historical data,” though some are, like, hitting the wrong button. But there are only so many ways to go wrong, and they are all sort of intuitive. ... Now some banker is going to type into a chat bot “our client wants to hedge the risk of the Turkish election,” and the chat bot will be like “she should sell some Dogecoin call options and use the proceeds to buy a lot of nickel futures,” and the banker will be like “weird okay whatever.” And that trade will go wrong in surprising ways, the client will sue, the client and the banker and the chat bot will all come to court, the judge will ask the chat bot “well why would this trade hedge anything,” and the chat bot will shrug its little imaginary shoulders and be like “bro why are you asking me I’m a chat bot.” Or it will say “actually the Dogecoin/nickel spread was ex ante an excellent proxy for Turkish political risk because” and then emit a series of ones and zeros and emojis and high-pitched noises that you and I and the judge can’t understand but that make perfect sense to the chat bot. New ways to be wrong! It will make life more exciting for financial columnists, for a bit, before we are all replaced by the chat bots.

Democrats want Vice President Kamala Harris to stop asking her supporters for money after she reportedly raised $1.4bn for her campaign and ended it with $20m in debt.
“I understand that the Harris campaign is in a very difficult position with the debt that they have, and so sometimes you just have to make practical decisions,” Mike Nellis, founder of the Democratic digital firm Authentic, told Politico. “But yeah, I think that stuff like that erodes trust.”
It’s not uncommon for presidential candidates to end their campaigns in debt. Hillary Clinton ended her 2008 campaign with $25m in debt and Barack Obama ended his 2012 campaign with $6.8m. The debts were settled in 2013 and 2018 respectively.
Harris’s campaign is attempting to raise funds for costs associated with ending the presidential bid, like maintaining staff, closing offices and ensuring financial reports are in compliance, the outlet reported.
Some of the emails being sent out by the campaign state: “Even a quick donation of $50 is enough to help us in this fight” and “And with only hours left to hit our goal today, NOW is the best time to rush your support.”
Canceling out campaign debt can come with some challenges due to limits on campaign contributions. It’s been reported that Harris’s campaign spent $551m on digital and TV ads.
The emails to supporters are raising cash for a joint fundraising committee affiliated with her campaign. The money will first go through the DNC, then the campaign’s recount account, and then to state parties, according to Politico. The committee will pay for expenses before the transfers happen.
Democratic watchers worry that Harris could be destroying relationships with donors by asking them to give her money after she raised millions within the first week of her campaign, eventually bringing in more than $1bn.
James Zogby, a DNC member who is vying for the committee’s vice chair position, said that the messages were not a “good look” and that the party’s donation solicitations can have a “begging” tone.

By: Christopher F. Rufo
Published: Nov 20, 2024
There is an old saw that, in America, every great cause begins as a movement and eventually degenerates into a racket. This is certainly true of the past decade’s most fashionable cause: “diversity, equity, and inclusion.” What might have begun as a social movement has now become a business—and not just in the United States. According to McKinsey & Company, spending on “DEI-related efforts” across the globe totaled $7.5 billion in 2020. If trends continue, that figure will exceed $15 billion by 2026.
And, in another American tradition, government contractors have turned a profit on this fad. While it’s hard to determine the precise amount of money that Washington spends on DEI, a search for contracts, grants, and other outlays that reference “diversity, equity, and inclusion” and similar terms suggests that DEI principles were attached to more than $1 billion in federal contracts last year.
This represents a rapid change. In 2019, according to our search, the federal government awarded only $27 million in contracts with language related to “diversity and inclusion.” But after the death of George Floyd in 2020, the federal government and private contractors went all-in on DEI, seeking to implement the Biden administration’s “whole-of-government” equity agenda.
In a series of executive orders beginning in January 2021, Biden unveiled that agenda. The White House directed each federal agency to “implement or increase the availability of [DEI] training programs,” create “internal policies and procedures to support” employees “transitioning” to another gender, submit annual DEI plans and reports to a White House steering committee, establish “agency equity teams,” and appoint a “chief diversity officer” to oversee compliance. These directives created a sudden demand for DEI consulting and opened the floodgates of federal funding to private contractors who offered “expert” advice on diversity-program management. Consulting firms were delighted; they set about rationalizing and marketing a respectable front for both the ideology and their own cash grab.
The large consulting firms advertised the adoption of DEI as a moral imperative. They boasted of their spending on diversity to demonstrate their credentials. Deloitte, for example, claimed to have spent $1.47 billion on “diverse suppliers.” McKinsey committed to doubling spending on such suppliers, while investing $20 million in DEI research. Deloitte, meantime, published a report titled The Equity Imperative, which encouraged “businesses [to] take the lead in dismantling” systemic racism—preferably with Deloitte’s “premier cross-enterprise DEI analytics tool.”
These firms argued simultaneously that DEI was morally necessary and good for the bottom line. McKinsey published studies that claimed to have found economic benefits from diversity policies. Incredibly, it claimed that narrowing the “gender gap” would add $12 trillion to GDP. Economists have shown that these studies are misleading and potentially fallacious.
The consultant class cashed in. In early 2022, McKinsey partnered with another firm to present “a series of workshops” that would “equip federal leaders working across government with research-based insights” to improve their “DEIA work” (the added “a” is for “accessibility”). Deloitte, seizing the opportunity presented by Biden’s executive orders mandating DEI in the federal workforce, published a paper on the “Government’s equity imperative,” presenting the firm’s “government equity activation model.”
McKinsey and Deloitte were only two of the many consultancies reaping financial rewards from the executive orders, with firms securing millions of taxpayer dollars in DEI-related contracts.
Agencies across the federal government participated in the gold rush. The Treasury Department awarded $2.8 million to Accenture Federal Services for DEI “implementation.” The Department of Health and Human Services gave a $2.9 million DEI contract to Totem. The Department of Defense agreed to pay Tyler Federal $3.3 million for “(DEI) database services.” The Agency for International Development allocated $6.2 million to SSG Advisors for “DEIA buy-in.”
What do these contracts entail in practice? Consider the $4.4 million agreement between the Department of Labor and CALCO Consulting Group to “deliver diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) training” for the department’s Job Corps program—an initiative to help young people “complete their high school education, train[] them for meaningful careers, and assist[] them with obtaining employment.”
Rather than focus on helping its clients find meaningful work, the Department of Labor contract funneled millions to outside vendors to conform the program to the DEI creed. For example, a team of CALCO DEI consultants went to Montgomery, Alabama, to lead “a 3-day immersive Student-Centered Design training as part of Job Corps’ plan to adopt DEIA principles at all its centers.” The department, in other words, used the firm to engrain critical race theory principles at every level of the program’s operations.
At NASA, the government awarded $2.4 million to LMI Consulting “to incorporate and deeply engrain diversity, inclusion, equity, and accessibility (DEIA) in” the agency’s “culture and business.” LMI, which has “assisted NASA in transforming its workforce,” happily adapted its product to the new DEI ideology. The agency recognized the firm’s work, giving its “Group Achievement Award” to seven LMI consultants—not for advancing space travel, but for “developing innovative approaches and ways to use lessons learned when implementing [DEI] strategies.”
The Department of Homeland Security is also implementing the White House’s DEI priorities. In September 2023, the department awarded $2.1 million to the Millennium Group International for “(DEIA) professional support services,” a rolling contract that could reach $7.5 million by 2028. That contract is part of the department’s sophisticated diversity apparatus, which includes strategic plans, DEI workshops and seminars, and trainings on “the brain science of inclusion.” Instead of enforcing the law and protecting life and liberty, DHS has focused on “unleashing the power of our shared human spirit” through “inclusive diversity.”
These contracts, and the racialist ideology on which they are predicated, do nothing to serve the national interest. When Donald Trump takes office in January, he should dismantle the diversity apparatus, which threatens his agenda and the principle of equality before the law. DEI is designed to favor ideologues and consultancy grift instead of competent or public-spirited officials. The second Trump administration must put a stop to these contracts immediately, lest they become one more corrupting force in an already deeply compromised federal government.
==
These con artists have perpetrated billions of dollars of fraud on taxpayers. Especially since we now know for certain that, like homeopathy, not only doesn't it work, it makes things worse.

Thailand Travel Restrictions
Thailand’s travel restrictions are governed by evolving public health policies, immigration laws, and safety measures. These regulations ensure the well-being of travelers and residents while balancing the country’s economic and tourism priorities. Understanding these restrictions is crucial for planning visits or long-term stays.
1. Entry Requirements
Visa Regulations:
Tourist Visa Exemption Program: Citizens of eligible countries can enter without a visa for up to 30 days (extendable by 30 days at immigration offices).
Tourist Visas (Single or Multiple Entry): Issued for longer stays of up to 60 days, extendable by 30 days.
Special Tourist Visa (STV): For stays up to 90 days, renewable twice for a total of 270 days.
Travel Insurance:
Comprehensive health insurance is often required, particularly for long-term visas, to cover potential medical expenses.
Vaccination Certificates:
COVID-19 vaccination proof or negative test results may still be required depending on current policies.
2. COVID-19-Specific Restrictions
Health Measures:
Travelers must comply with temperature checks, mask mandates (if reinstated), and health declarations upon arrival.
Quarantine Regulations:
Fully vaccinated travelers generally bypass quarantine requirements, while unvaccinated individuals might face quarantine periods or additional testing depending on their point of origin.
Test-and-Go Programs:
Testing-on-arrival schemes may apply for specific groups of travelers during public health crises.
3. Regional and Domestic Travel
Provincial Entry Rules:
Travel restrictions may vary by province based on local COVID-19 conditions.
Provincial checkpoints may enforce vaccination or testing requirements.
Modes of Transportation:
Domestic flights, buses, and trains operate with varying restrictions, including reduced capacity and health checks.
4. Special Considerations for Long-Term Visitors
Work and Retirement Visas:
Specific visas like the Non-Immigrant B (Work Visa) and Retirement Visas have additional entry requirements, such as proof of financial stability and health insurance.
Education and Research:
Students and researchers need institutional sponsorship letters and visa endorsements.
5. Enforcement and Penalties
Overstay Penalties:
Overstaying results in fines (500 THB per day, up to 20,000 THB) and potential blacklisting.
Compliance Monitoring:
Address reporting every 90 days is mandatory for long-term visa holders.
Conclusion
Thailand’s travel restrictions ensure a balance between public health safety and welcoming travelers. While requirements may change based on global and domestic conditions, staying informed about visas, health policies, and local rules is essential for a smooth travel experience. Always consult official Thai government or embassy resources for the most accurate updates.

Key Strategies for Hiring a Chief Compliance Officer in Toronto
Toronto's business landscape is dynamic and diverse, making it a hub for industries heavily regulated by local and international standards. In this environment, the role of a Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) is critical. Tasked with safeguarding an organization’s adherence to regulations and mitigating compliance risks, the CCO is a cornerstone of a company’s ethical and operational integrity.
The process of finding the right individual for this pivotal role requires careful planning, expertise, and a strategic approach. Here are the key strategies for a successful chief compliance officer search in Toronto.
Understand the Evolving Role of the CCO
The modern Chief Compliance Officer wears many hats, from regulatory expert to corporate advisor. This role has evolved beyond managing legal risks to include fostering an ethical corporate culture and providing strategic input at the executive level.
When hiring a Chief Compliance Officer in Toronto, consider the specific regulatory challenges in your industry. Whether your organization operates in finance, healthcare, or another regulated sector, the ideal candidate should have expertise in both local compliance laws and global standards. Toronto's growing prominence as a financial and legal hub means that finding a candidate who can navigate complex regulatory landscapes is more important than ever.
Define the Core Competencies
A successful chief compliance officer search in Toronto begins with a clear understanding of the required competencies. While technical knowledge of regulatory frameworks is non-negotiable, soft skills such as leadership, communication, and strategic thinking are equally vital.
Key attributes to look for include:
Deep Regulatory Knowledge: Familiarity with local, provincial, and federal compliance requirements.
Analytical Thinking: The ability to identify potential risks and implement effective mitigation strategies.
Leadership Skills: Experience building and leading compliance teams.
Ethical Decision-Making: A commitment to maintaining the highest standards of integrity.
Incorporate these competencies into your job description to attract candidates who not only meet technical qualifications but also align with your company’s values and culture.
Engage a Specialized Recruiting Agency
The competition for top compliance talent is fierce, especially in a city like Toronto, where industries are expanding rapidly. Partnering with a recruiting agency in Toronto that specializes in compliance and executive placements can give your organization an edge.
Specialized agencies like BJRC Recruiting bring industry expertise and an extensive network of vetted professionals. They understand the nuances of hiring strategies for compliance roles and can help match your organization with candidates who fit both the role and your company’s culture.
Working with a recruiting agency also streamlines the process, saving time and resources. From initial outreach to final negotiations, agencies handle the complexities of the recruitment process, ensuring you find the right fit quickly and efficiently.
Leverage Toronto’s Talent Pool
Toronto’s position as a global city offers access to a diverse and highly qualified talent pool. When conducting a chief compliance officer search in Toronto, focus on candidates with strong ties to the local market. This ensures they are familiar with the region’s specific regulatory requirements and business practices.
Additionally, consider candidates with global experience. Toronto’s multicultural environment often necessitates working across borders, making international regulatory knowledge a valuable asset.
Prioritize Cultural Fit
Hiring for technical expertise is critical, but so is finding a candidate who aligns with your organizational culture. A Chief Compliance Officer works closely with executive teams, employees, and external stakeholders, making interpersonal skills essential.
During the interview process, assess how candidates approach challenges like implementing new compliance policies or handling conflicts. Their ability to collaborate and communicate effectively will significantly impact their success in the role.
Stay Ahead with Proactive Recruitment
The demand for skilled compliance professionals continues to grow, making proactive recruitment essential. Don’t wait until there’s an immediate need to start your chief compliance officer search in Toronto. Building a pipeline of potential candidates ensures your organization is prepared for future needs.
Engaging in ongoing dialogue with a recruiting agency in Toronto can help you stay connected to the market and identify top talent before competitors. Proactive strategies like networking and keeping tabs on industry trends are invaluable in securing the best candidates.

MADISON, Wis. — A bombshell report this morning from Dan Bice of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel revealed that Banco Azteca, a bank reportedly tied to the Mexican cartel flew $26 million of cash across the U.S.-Mexico Border to Eric Hovde’s bank in California.
As the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel detailed, Banco Azteca was cut off by several other U.S. banks over “risk and compliance concerns” after reporting linked it to cartel activity. An executive of the bank was recently implicated in a federal indictment detailing his attempts to bribe a member of the U.S. Congress to get U.S. banks to once again do business with the bank. Despite this, Eric Hovde’s bank flew $26 million of cash from Mexico City to Irvine, California as part of a deal with Banco Azteca last December.
This shocking revelation comes as Hovde has refused to disclose which foreign banks and governments his bank has done millions of dollars of business with. What else is Hovde hiding?
Read more below:
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: Bice: Democrats question Eric Hovde over his bank’s $26M deal with a troubled Mexican bank
By: Dan Bice
Banco Azteca, the 10th largest financial institution in Mexico, has had its share of problems in recent years.
Accused in past news stories of having links to the Mexican drug cartel.
Dropped as a financial partner by some U.S. banks because of “risk and compliance concerns.”
And now caught up in a Texas bribery scheme with an American congressman.
But Sunwest Bank, the Utah-based financial institution run by Republican U.S. Senate candidate Eric Hovde, doesn’t mind doing business with it.
In December, Banco Azteca sent $26.2 million in cash to Sunwest on four airplane flights as part of a massive currency conversion called “repatriation,” records show. Hovde, who is running against Democratic U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, is chairman and CEO of Sunwest.
Now Democrats are questioning the deal, saying it gives voters a window into how Hovde runs his businesses by putting personal financial stakes above other issues.
Arik Wolk, spokesman of the Democratic Party, said Sunwest’s transactions with Banco Azteca are “extraordinarily concerning,” especially given the alleged past ties between Azteca and the drug cartel. He added, however, that Democrats were not suggesting Hovde or Sunwest had done anything illegal.
“Hovde is willing to do anything to enrich himself, even flying cash across the border for a bank suspected of working for criminal groups that are pouring deadly fentanyl into our state,” Wolk claimed.
As recently as 2021, Banco Azteca had no correspondent banks in the U.S. with which it could transfer U.S. currency.
Over the past decade, several news accounts, including two by Reuters, have drawn links between Banco Azteca and Mexican gangs, which are the leading suppliers of cocaine, heroin, fentanyl and other illicit narcotics to the U.S.
In 2023, a Reuters reporter wrote that drug cartels are using remittances – money transfers favored by migrant workers – to send illicit earnings back to Mexico.
The Reuters reporter said he witnessed five individuals on motorcycles collecting cash from people leaving branch offices of three banks, including Banco Azteca. Locals said these were couriers for the Sinaloa Cartel picking up drug money sent as remittances.
In a 2014 story, Reuters quoted a prominent anti-kidnapping activist saying Mexican gangs involved in kidnapping migrants ask for the money to be sent to Banco Azteca. Also, the Yale Journal of International Affairs reported that Banco Azteca was one of four banks that the Mexican cartel was using to process extortion payments.
A little more than a decade ago, the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency investigated Banco Azteca’s ties with its then-correspondent bank in the U.S., Lone Star National Bank of Pharr, and turned up money-laundering concerns. Repeatedly cited and fined, Lone Star soon ended its relationship with Banco Azteca.
Other financial institutions, including Fifth Third Cincinnati and CBW Bank, soon followed.
According to a May story in the Wall Street Journal, Banco Azteca has struggled doing business with U.S. banks since regulators began enforcing rules cracking down on money laundering from drug trafficking, kidnapping and extortion. Many U.S. banks have cut ties with Banco Azteca because of “risk and compliance concerns.”
For years, that left Banco Azteca holding onto large sums of U.S. currency with no place to offload it.

Why is ESG Intelligence Important to Companies?
Human activities burden Earth’s biosphere, but ESG criteria can ensure that industries optimize their operations to reduce their adverse impact on ecological and socio-economic integrity. Investors have utilized the related business intelligence to screen stocks of ethical enterprises. Consumers want to avoid brands that employ child labor. This post will elaborate on why ESG intelligence has become important to companies.
What is ESG Intelligence?
ESG, or environmental, social, and governance, is an investment guidance and business performance auditing approach. It assesses how a commercial organization treats its stakeholders and consumes natural resources. At its core, you will discover statistical metrics from a sustainability perspective. So, ESG data providers gather and process data for compliance ratings and reports.
Managers, investors, and government officers can understand a company’s impact on its workers, regional community, and biosphere before engaging in stock buying or business mergers. Since attracting investors and complying with regulatory guidelines is vital for modern corporations, ESG intelligence professionals have witnessed a rise in year-on-year demand.
Simultaneously, high-net-worth individuals (HNWI) and financial institutions expect a business to work toward accomplishing the United Nations’ sustainable development goals. Given these dynamics, leaders require data-driven insights to enhance their compliance ratings.
Components of ESG Intelligence
The environmental considerations rate a firm based on waste disposal, plastic reduction, carbon emissions risks, pollution control, and biodiversity preservation. Other metrics include renewable energy adoption, green technology, and water consumption.
Likewise, the social impact assessments check whether a company has an adequate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policy. Preventing workplace toxicity and eradicating child labor practices are often integral to the social reporting head of ESG services.
Corporate governance concerns discouraging bribes and similar corruptive activities. Moreover, an organization must implement solid cybersecurity measures to mitigate corporate espionage and ransomware threats. Accounting transparency matters too.
Why is ESG Intelligence Important to Companies?
Reason 1 – Risk Management
All three pillars of ESG reports, environmental, social, and governance, enable business owners to reduce their company’s exposure to the following risks.
High greenhouse (GHG) emissions will attract regulatory penalties under pollution reduction directives. Besides, a commercial project can take longer if vital resources like water become polluted. Thankfully, the environmental pillar helps companies comply with the laws governing these situations.
A toxic and discriminatory workplace environment often harms employees’ productivity, collaboration, creativity, and leadership skill development. Therefore, inefficiencies like reporting delays or emotional exhaustion can slow a project’s progress. ESG’s social metrics will mitigate the highlighted risks resulting from human behavior and multi-generational presumptions.
Insurance fraud, money laundering, tax evasion, preferential treatment, hiding conflicts of interest, and corporate espionage are the governance risks you must address as soon as possible. These problems introduce accounting inconsistencies and data theft issues. You will also receive penalties according to your regional laws if data leaks or insider trading happens.
Reason 2 – Investor Relations (IR)
Transparent disclosures can make or break the relationship between corporate leaders and investors. With the help of ESG intelligence, it becomes easier to make qualitative and manipulation-free “financial materiality” reports. Therefore, managers can successfully execute the deal negotiations with little to no resistance.
You want to retain the present investors and attract more patrons to raise funds. These resources will help you to augment your company’s expansion and market penetration. However, nourishing mutually beneficial investor relations is easier said than done.
For example, some sustainability investors will prioritize enterprises with an ESG score of above 80. Others will refuse to engage with your brand if one of the suppliers has documented records of employing child labor. Instead of being unaware of these issues, you can identify them and mitigate the associated risks using ESG intelligence and insights.
Reason 3 – Consumer Demand
Consider the following cases.
Customers wanted plastic-free product packaging, and e-commerce platforms listened to their demand. And today’s direct home deliveries contribute to public awareness of how petroleum-derived synthetic coating materials threaten the environment.
The availability of recharging facilities and rising gas prices have made electric vehicles (EVs) more attractive to consumers. Previously, the demand for EVs had existed only in the metropolitan areas. However, the EV industry expects continuous growth as electricity reaches more semi-urban and rural regions.
Businesses and investors care about consumer demand. Remember, they cannot force consumers into buying a product or service. And a healthy competitive industry has at least three players. Therefore, customers can choose which branded items they want to consume.
Consumer demand is one of the driving factors that made ESG intelligence crucial in many industries. If nobody was searching for electric vehicles on the web or everybody had demanded plastic packaging, businesses would never switch their attitudes toward the concerns discussed above.
Conclusion
Data governance has become a popular topic due to the privacy laws in the EU, the US, Brazil, and other nations. Meanwhile, child labor is still prevalent in specific developing and underdeveloped regions. Also, the climate crisis has endangered the future of agricultural occupations.
Deforestation, illiteracy, carbon emissions, identity theft, insider trading, discrimination, on-site accidents, corruption, and gender gap threaten the well-being of future generations. The world requires immediate and coordinated actions to resolve these issues.
Therefore, ESG intelligence is important to companies, consumers, investors, and governments. Properly acquiring and analyzing it is possible if these stakeholders leverage the right tools, relevant benchmarks, and expert data partners.
