Sustainability as part of the corporate strategy
Banks have a significant impact on the economy and society. They manage financial flows and thus enable economic growth, create jobs and provide social services. Their products and services affect the environment and society. Risks may thus arise, which is why it is particularly important for financial companies to take responsibility for their social, ecological and economic impacts.

Our policies
In our internal sustainability guidelines (ESG guidelines), we have also drawn up further regulations for dealing with financing and investments in sectors. They serve as a guide to ecological and social aspects in business decisions and lending processes.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) are the United Nations' 17 goals, which are intended to contribute to sustainable development at the economic, social and ecological level. NORD/LB continuously analyses the business and operating areas with regard to the 17 goals, identifies the potential for action and develops key figures that are intended to make our contribution measurable and comparable.
