Our approach to sustainability

We want to address climate change, financial crime and inclusion in our work.

We have a key role in our economy to promote work and diversity. Our culture is simple, personal, and fair. We have five established ways of behaving that support this. We continue to make sure that our culture helps us achieve our goals. We want to change things for the better and help people and businesses succeed.




Our Strategy

Our strategy focuses on the topics that are most important to our customers and communities. We recognise that we have an important role to play in addressing financial crime, inclusion and broader social issues.
