Our Impact

Since 1977, Radian has helped more than 8.5 million families achieve their dream of homeownership in a way that is affordable, responsible, and sustainable. We are proud of the impact we have made in the housing market and the communities we serve, particularly in assisting historically underserved households in accessing affordable mortgage credit.

Corporate Responsibility

At Radian, we've embraced a corporate responsibility program that is meaningful for our company, our employees, customers, stockholders and other stakeholders, and the communities where we live and work. It supports our commitment to belonging, environmental health and safety, corporate social responsibility, talent development and employee engagement, corporate governance, and other public policy matters. Most importantly, we share in a common purpose and commitment to ethics, philanthropy, environmental sustainability, and belonging in the workplace.

Social Responsibility

Radian's financial strength and growth depend on the well-being of the communities in which we operate. Therefore, we strive to enhance the health, welfare, financial strength and quality of life of our employees and all who live in those communities, through thoughtful social investments. We are proud to invest in the communities where our employees live and work, both financially and through volunteerism.

  • Employee Wellbeing

    This represents our focus on the components our employees need to be well in both their personal and professional lives. This priority goes beyond work-life balance to consider employees’ needs for maintaining financial, physical, and mental well-being—such as focusing on employees’ workload capacity and prioritization and emphasizing important values like allyship and open dialogues.

  • Equitable Homeownership

    We have always been driven by a deep sense of purpose to make homeownership affordable, responsible and sustainable. We are proud of the role we play in the housing market by helping mortgage-ready borrowers, including historically underserved households, obtain access to affordable mortgage credit, often for first-time homeowners and typically for homes that are below the median home price in the United States. Learn more about our commitment to equitable homeownership.

  • Making a Difference Beyond the Workplace

    Through corporate giving, employee volunteerism, and strategic corporate partnerships, we actively support initiatives that promote affordable housing and community development. Our employees are encouraged to give back through matching donations and community outreach initiatives. By aligning our philanthropic efforts with our mission, we strive to make a lasting positive impact and help build stronger, more sustainable communities.

Environmental

Though the direct environmental impact of our commercial real estate may be limited, we continually seek opportunities to minimize our environmental footprint. To demonstrate our commitment, we maintain an Environmental Policy that governs sustainable and environmentally conscious practices.

Environmental Policy

  • Radian's Environmental Footprint

    Radian is committed to operating our business responsibly and understands that this will help Radian create long-term and sustainable value for our company and stakeholders by reducing costs, increasing revenue, mitigating risks, enhancing our reputation, strengthening our communities, and helping us meet the expectations of our stockholders, customers, employees, communities, and future generations. Radian's Environmental Policy governs sustainable and environmentally conscious practices and also issued a Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) report.

  • Greenhouse Gas Emissions

    Our commitment to environmental responsibility reflects our broader mission of creating long-term value for our employees, communities, and other stakeholders. We prepared our GHG inventory in alignment with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (GHG Protocol). For GHG emissions reporting, Radian delineates its organizational boundary using the operational criterion under management control. Operational control reflects the activities where Radian has the full authority to introduce and implement operating policies. While we do not have a large carbon footprint, our dedication to transparency is paramount. We have engaged a qualified third party to perform a limited assurance engagement over our Scope 1 & Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions for the reporting period.
