Who is Oxbury Bank?


Oxbury Bank is the only UK bank dedicated to the rural economy, with a mission to provide the food and farming industries with the funding and support that they need. It provides lending facilities created specifically for the unique needs of the agricultural sector and has a range of savings accounts available to retail and business customers.  
 
With its target customers’ businesses having a heavy reliance on environmental factors, Oxbury Bank has prioritised climate change targets, including reducing the carbon footprint across its supply chain.

What was their challenge?

Ensuring consistency in onboarding and due diligence of suppliers 

Allocating resource for supplier due diligence

Increased business risk due to non-compliance

With its supplier due diligence and ESG status visible through FSQS, Oxbury Bank can allocate more resource to supporting the food and farming businesses. 

As a specialist bank dedicated to agriculture, Oxbury Bank is focused on sustainable growth while serving the farming community. FSQS helps streamline the administrative process of gathering key supplier information, enabling Oxbury Bank’s senior management to focus on strategic initiatives - supporting British farmers, driving business growth, and providing financial products to the food and farming value chain to transition to a lower emissions and more resilient sector.

FSQS helps Oxbury Bank streamline its due diligence, and get visibility of its suppliers’ ESG status

FSQS makes it easier to see where the bank needs to focus most to minimise risk.  


“We use FSQS as part of our third-party risk management framework; by outsourcing the administrative portion of supplier due diligence as much as possible, we can concentrate on meeting our commitments to our customers, the environment, and the regulator.”  


Carl McNeice, COO, Oxbury Bank

Top three benefits for Oxbury Bank

Reduces administrative burden across several departments.

Clear view of supplier ESG status.

Simplifies supplier procurement process.

Community collaborations helped Oxbury Bank maximise FSQS through shared organisational experiences

The bank now seeks to use FSQS earlier in its new supplier onboarding process, reducing administrative pressure on its staff.

“Tapping into insight from others through community collaboration has helped us to lean more heavily into what FSQS can do for us and enabled us to remove a whole layer of admin around new supplier onboarding.“

FSQS has enabled Oxbury  Bank to outsource much of its supplier-related administrative tasks, allowing it to focus on core business objectives

The amount of time necessary to collect and verify due-diligence data for all Oxbury Bank’s suppliers and to ascertain each supplier’s ESG score would be significant. Hellios and FSQS can provide supplier related information that allows Oxbury to focus on its banking business.
