ReportAlert.info - KBC Group Publishes Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2006
(CSRwire) May 31, 2007- KBC Group’s 2006 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
Report is now available for download in English via http://www.reportalert.info/ra/KBC310507.htm.
For this third report, KBC has adopted a more stakeholder-oriented
approach. The report covers KBC’s CSR performance for 2006 and describes
the group’s responsibility towards its employees, customers, suppliers,
shareholders & investors and the community at large, including how its
environmental footprint is being managed.
This time, the CSR Report has been drawn up in accordance with the Global
Reporting Initiative’s new G3 guidelines, and KBC has elected to apply
the C+ reporting level. Moreover, the scope now covers virtually all of
KBC’s operations around the world, including that of its main home
markets of Belgium and Central and Eastern Europe. The key performance
indicators are presented in consolidated form for 2005 and 2006 to
increase transparency and enable comparability. And, once again, the
report has been independently assured by Ernst & Young.
KBC is an integrated multi-channel bancassurance group, catering mainly
for retail customers, small and medium-sized enterprises and private
banking clientele. Geographically, KBC focuses on Belgium and Central and
Eastern Europe for retail bancassurance and asset management, as well as
for the provision of services to corporate customers. The group also
conducts private banking and merchant banking activities in a selection of
other countries in Europe. Elsewhere around the world, the group has
established a presence in selected countries and regions. KBC seeks to
become an efficient bancassurer with a strong affinity for its customers,
while ensuring that its employees are looked after. It also strives to
identify with the various communities it serves by adhering to socially
responsible business practices in keeping with the standards of the
relevant countries.
