Our selected Sustainable Development Goals [SDGs]

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Our Sustainability Framework supports the delivery of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

A globally agreed agenda adopted by 193 countries, the SDGs represent the world’s most pressing sustainable development priorities until 2030. Achieving the SDGs will require investment in new solutions and partnerships across the public sector, the private sector and civil society.

As a bank, the main way we can make a difference is by providing financial solutions that support the sustainable development. We have selected six focus SDGs, where we can make the biggest contribution to sustainable development in the markets where we operate.

We also recognise that the SDGs are a set of interrelated goals and that we touch all 17 SDGs in different ways. Therefore, we will continuously seek new ways to contribute to the whole sustainable development agenda where relevant.
