Sydbank’s CSR report gives an insight into the Bank’s sus­tain­abil­ity efforts.

Sydbank’s CSR report meets the current re­quire­men­ts regarding CSR reporting pursuant to section 135 b of the Danish executive order on financial reporting of credit in­sti­tu­tions and brokerage firms etc. This applies in par­tic­u­lar with regards to the five mandatory reporting areas: social issues, climate issues, en­vi­ron­men­tal issues, human rights and anti-cor­rup­tion measures.

Fur­ther­more, the report includes reporting pursuant to Article 8 of the Taxonomy Reg­u­la­tion, the reporting on the in­te­gra­tion of the UN Prin­ci­ples for Re­spon­si­ble Banking and finally, the report meets the re­quire­men­ts of the UN Global Compact con­cern­ing the sub­mis­sion of a Com­mu­ni­ca­tion on Progress.

The Danish version of the CSR report gets reviewed (ISAE 3000, limited assurance) by an external auditor to obtain limited assurance for data covered by the auditors’ report. 

From the financial year 2022, we have in­te­grated the CSR Report into the Annual Report. Sydbank does not publish a CSR Report anymore, since our CSR reporting now can be found in the Annual Report.
