We protect the interests of our customers, shareholders and employees so as to contribute to financial stability, sustainable economic growth and job creation.
We strive to help maintain the financial stability and smooth functioning of the European banking sector. To this end, we participate in the regulatory and legislative processes of the financial and banking sector at national, European and global levels in order to promote a solid, consistent and coherent regulatory framework.
We work to ensure that the regulatory framework considers sustainable financing, in keeping with the goals of the 2030 Agenda and the Paris Agreement on climate change. We want to ensure a fair transition to a sustainable economy, which is why we also engage in initiatives related to promoting the digital transformation, improving transparency and protecting consumers.
Under no circumstances do we contract services directly from lobbyists to define our position with government agencies. We generally share opinions through different industry associations to try to reach a common position, and we occasionally also directly send out our own messages.
