Culture and values
The foundation of Capco's culture is built on five values. These set the standards by which individual and team performance are rewarded: RESPECT, INTEGRITY, COMMITMENT, EXCELLENCE, KNOWLEDGE.
Capco prides itself on its entrepreneurial outlook and encourages independent thinking, via its #BeYourselfAtWork culture.
Its flat, non-hierarchical structure enables employees cross-learning opportunities and the chance to make a real contribution to developing the business.
Industry-leading thought leadership
Thought leadership forms an important part of Capco's culture. All levels of the organization are encouraged to contribute to the firm's content agenda.
The Capco Institute delivers critical thinking to advance the field of applied finance. The Institute is an independent entity, with no pre-existing policy, commercial agenda or constraints. It includes the publication of the multi-award-winning Journal of Financial Transformation, and executive video series and events that bring together leading thinkers from both academia and industry.
The Journal of Financial Transformation includes industry research, analysis and articles from Nobel laureate economists, regulators, central bankers and industry experts. These articles are peer-reviewed and submitted by financial services professionals and academics from institutions including Wharton Business School, INSEAD and Harvard Business School.
The Center for Regulatory Intelligence, based in Washington DC, provides the latest intelligence, thought leadership and leading-edge regulatory insights into risk, information security and compliance issues. Capco established the center to translate policy, legislative and regulatory developments into actionable risk intelligence. The Center produces Regulatory Intelligence Briefings (RIBs), client alerts, industry snapshots, timely summaries, blogs and other thought leadership to help keep pace with the ever-evolving financial services industry.
CSR
At Capco, employees use core skills to create a positive global impact for the needs of today and the initiatives close to their hearts.
While they take part in traditional volunteering like distributing food and raising funds, they also run skill-based volunteer programs, such as pro-bono consulting, which allows them to apply the skills, experience, talents and education of Capco employees and match them with the needs of non-profits. Giving back and supporting the community in which Capco operates is a major part of its foundation.
The organization has partnerships with Room to Read, a non-profit focused on girls' education and children's literacy in Asia and Africa and Bankers Without Borders, a global "skillanthropy" movement.
The partnership with Room to Read began in 2013. Since then Capco's employees have raised funds and conducted pro-bono work for the non-profit; and even built schools and libraries in India, Cambodia and Sri Lanka.
Capco has supported Bankers Without Borders since 2014. Employees have completed nine strategic projects and over 2,000 hours of volunteering across three continents with the movement, so far.
