Governance is the system through which an organisation makes and implements decisions to pursue its goals; the implemented choices and activities can make a significant contribution to sustainable development.
Governance constitutes our institutional framework and, in order to effectively adopt strategies that respect and enhance the other two factors (Environmental and Social), it must also be guided by ethical principles in line with ESG factors.
These guidelines are particularly reflected in the Code of Ethics, a document that sets out commitments and responsibilities in conducting the Bank’s business and activities, while also defining the set of values, as well as the conduct, that must be adopted by the governing bodies, employees and, in general, by all those who work with the Bank.
