Environmental, Social, and Governance

Overview
 

At Enact, our mission to help more people become homeowners motivates everything we do. Homeownership helps build wealth from generation to generation. It stabilizes and strengthens communities, and it is an integral part of the American dream. ESG is intertwined with our business objectives. Our financial success is based upon the success of our neighbors and the communities in which we work and live. 

In 2022, we engaged a third-party consultancy to assess and rank our ESG priorities. As part of this robust process, we solicited the perspectives of our key internal and external stakeholders—including employees, Board members, customers, and shareholders. Based on this feedback and the deliberations of our Executive Leadership Team (ELT) and members of our Board, we identified and ranked the ESG issues that are most important to our business and stakeholders.

Providing Training and Career Development Opportunities


To support employee growth, we offer a comprehensive suite of learning options including structured development programs, instructor-led classes, on-demand content, and internal and external workshops. Employees can enhance their performance, prepare for the next phase of their careers, or further a technical skillset. We have a dedicated manager curriculum and connection points to ensure our leaders are armed with the knowledge and tools they need to foster an engaged and productive workforce. As needed, we send employees and leaders to external executive education opportunities.  

Our mentor program allows employees to share their expertise and learn from one another. Our intern program creates an entry point into the organization for early-career talent and gives aspiring leaders opportunities to manage small teams temporarily to hone their skills. In 2022, we ran a multi-week business simulation competition to engage a group of employees in an exciting and educational management exercise. We complete a deep Succession Planning exercise and regularly review and revise our plans, including input from our Compensation Committee for employees at the executive level. By identifying high-potential internal talent, we are constantly developing candidates for critical roles and ensuring a strong pipeline of leaders.
