YCP in Numbers
Key Challenges We Address
Turning Cambodia’s SDG Framework into Operational Metrics
- With five years until 2030, firms must translate 17 global goals and Cambodia’s 18-goal SDG framework into operations, while sustainability data often remain fragmented.
- YCP connects material SDG priorities to business units, establishes practical KPI baselines and reporting routines, and turns scattered data into decision-ready insight.
Building Climate-Resilient, Lower-Carbon Value Chains
- Floods, droughts and heat increasingly disrupt Cambodian supply chains. Cambodia targets a 41.7% emissions reduction by 2030 versus business as usual, raising expectations for firms.
- Against this backdrop, YCP maps climate and value-chain exposure, identifies feasible decarbonisation levers, and sequences investments around commercial value.
Extending Decent Work Across Informal Supply Networks
- About 88% of employment in Cambodia is informal, making worker protections, skills development and supplier due diligence harder to standardise across value chains.
- YCP helps translate inclusion commitments into workforce, sourcing and community programmes, with measurable targets suited to local operating realities.
Making SDG Investments Viable for MSME-Led Markets
- MSMEs represent more than 99% of Cambodian enterprises, yet many lack the capital and specialist capacity to turn SDG ambitions into scalable, investable projects.
- YCP develops business cases, implementation roadmaps and partnership models, helping leaders prioritise high-impact actions and mobilise suitable finance.
With Cambodia aiming to achieve all SDGs by 2030,
74%
of businesses consider local expertise essential for successful SDG alignment in Cambodia.

The Declining Profitability Trend in Cambodia's Banks: The Impact of Rising Costs and NPLs
Cambodia’s banking sector is facing declining profitability amid higher funding costs, slower loan growth, and rising NPLs. While macro pressures persist, banks can stabilize performance through tighter cost control, improved credit risk management, and disciplined growth, particularly in personal lending portfolios.
Supply Chain Finance in Southeast Asia
As Southeast Asia’s supply chains evolve under China+1 strategies, working capital constraints are intensifying. Supply chain finance offers a way to unlock liquidity, support suppliers, and strengthen resilience through buyer-led programs and digital platforms. Regulatory alignment and greater SME awareness can further drive adoption.
Accelerating Sustainable Recovery in Southeast Asia
Southeast Asia’s post-pandemic recovery is increasingly shaped by climate and social risks that demand regional cooperation. Aligning growth with ESG priorities through coordinated policy, sustainable finance, and stronger data frameworks is critical to addressing vulnerabilities and supporting long-term development across the region.
Indonesia's Petrochemical Future: The Next Growth Frontier
