Sustainability
A large banking group like Intesa Sanpaolo is aware of having a significant impact on the social and environmental context in which it carries out its business thus choosing to act not only on the basis of profit, but also with the aim of creating long-term value for the Bank, its employees, customers, community and the environment.
Intesa Sanpaolo wants to be a responsible financial intermediary that generates collective value knowing that innovation, development of new products and services and corporate responsibility can contribute to reducing the impact on society of phenomena such as climate change and social inequality.
Such awareness generates the adherence to important international initiatives, such as the United Nations Global Compact and the Equator Principles.
In 2019, the Group's commitment to sustainability was further strengthened by joining three important United Nations initiatives, which are part of the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals: the Principles for Responsible Banking, launched in September 2019 to bring the banking sector closer to the Sustainable Development Goals and those set in the 2015 Paris climate agreement; the Principles for Sustainable Insurance for the inclusion of sustainability and ESG criteria also in the insurance business and the Women's Empowerment Principles, for the promotion of gender equality and women's professional development.
