SUSTAINABILITY HAS MANY FACETS FOR THE SAVINGS BANKS FINANCE GROUP

The Savings Banks’ business model reflects their founding mission: to assume social responsibility and act sustainably. This applies even more in times of crisis and in the increasingly digital age.

To this end, both the Savings Banks and the institutions of the Savings Banks Finance Group have expanded their business model: In addition to social and economic responsibility, they are also steadily expanding their ecological activities and range of sustainable products. An increasing number of institutions of the Savings Banks Finance Group are signing up to the “voluntary commitment to climate-friendly and sustainable business”. To date, 281 Savings Banks, four Landesbanken including DekaBank and ten affiliated companies have signed the voluntary commitment.*
