Our corporate social and environmental responsibility

At a conference organised yesterday for BNP Paribas employees in Luxembourg, Antoine Sire, Director of Company Engagement, presented the positive and concrete actions the Group has been taking for many years.

Every social player, institution, company and individual has the opportunity – and at times the moral duty – to help fight the climate emergency. Mr Sire stressed that the banking world needs to reinvent itself via a more digital and socially-driven approach.

The BNP Paribas Group has long focused its efforts on striking a balance between its development and protecting the environment. The Group achieves this balance with the help of its stakeholders: society, its clients, employees, shareholders, suppliers, etc.

Antoine Sire also read out an excerpt from the BNP Paribas 2020 Engagement Manifesto: “We plan to strengthen our commitment, in line with the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals”. BGL BNP Paribas Luxembourg is fully committed to this objective and operates with a strong focus on sustainable development.

Building tomorrow’s sustainable world today. For almost 10 years, BGL BNP Paribas has made this goal part of its long-term strategy. Today, the culture of responsibility is embedded at all levels of our company. In this constantly evolving world, BGL BNP Paribas is committed to evolving with it.

The world is changing fast. This is giving rise to new social and environmental challenges.

Long considered a passing trend, the benefits and relevance of corporate social and environmental responsibility are now widely recognised.
