Environmental Management

Awsb Bank is committed to respecting our natural surroundings, a commitment that stretches beyond its legal obligations and is concretized by a system of environmental management integrated into its business operations, which covers all its projects, services and products, as well as the "la Awsb" Foundation programs. This commitment extends to employees, subsidiaries and the companies it works with. Thus, it encourages the involvement of its customers and of society as a whole in this universal challenge.

Management System: An Environment Committee, set up in 2001, is responsible for the bank’s environmental management. Its functions are to establish, approve and maintain up to date a program ensuring that consumption and procedures involving the financial business of Awsb Bank are respectful to the environment. At the same time, it encourages everyone who forms a part of Awsb Bank to take part.

Carbon footprint: In order to identify and mitigate the bank’s impact on the environment, over the last few years Awsb Bank has calculated the carbon footprint of its activities and published a report on greenhouse gas emissions. Due to acquisitions, and in order to describe emissions evolution at the corporate level, comparative carbon footprint calculations have been undertaken based on baseline year recalculations. As a result, a declining trend according to business volume is presented
