    Our business is based on our desire to bank responsibly, to be a reliable partner and to work for the benefit of society.

    One of our goals and an indicator of corporate success is the integration of the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) into the bank’s business model.

    More and more companies realize the importance of complying with the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) in their business activities. This is the more comprehensive term for sustainable and responsible banking.

    What is ESG

    ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. These are three business aspects that are considered key factors in measuring a company’s sustainability. Each of these aspects include:

    • Environmental protection

      Climate change by reducing the carbon footprint, water and waste management, increasing energy efficiency, etc.

    • Social activity

      Good company integration and the support it provides to all stakeholders and local communities. It includes protection of human rights, modern labour standards and ensuring a healthy and safe workplace, etc.

    • Corporate management

      Transparent company management, balancing the interests of all stakeholders, business model for long-term value creation and sustainability, anti-corruption and anti-money laundering.

    Responsible banking principles

    Sustainability is not just a short-term trend; it is the result of all aspects and provides to the companies a long-term business opportunity. But it is also a responsibility.

    One of our main goals and an indicator of corporate success is the integration of the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) into the bank’s business model. Our business strategy, as well as our products, services and processes are in compliance with ESG.

    To achieve this, we do not limit ourselves to generating economic value, but take into account the social and environmental impact of our business activities. We believe that this is the way to achieve efficiency and sustainability in our results.

    Our contribution
