Strategy and Risk / Opportunity Management

Creating Shared Value with Society (CSV Framework)

The Bank aims to improve well-being and reduce social inequality through projects that foster environmental and social development for a better quality of life. This is achieved by promoting stable, income-generating jobs and financial literacy, helping communities better understand and manage their finances, and enhancing financial skills and capacity to enable self-reliance.



The Bank has implemented this framework through the 'Go Local, Grow Local' project to create sustainable social outcomes. The project operates on the principle of empowering community members to manage their issues independently. The Bank emphasizes Holistic Area-based Community Development approach that addresses economic, environmental, and quality-of-life issues while fostering financial literacy. The guidelines for tracking progress and expanding projects are continuously refined, aiming to achieve the Bank's strategic goal of enhancing the quality of life in society and creating a foundation for sustainability for future generations.

In addition to promoting and developing relationships with external stakeholders, employee volunteers play a crucial role in building the Bank's culture of volunteerism.

This approach supports human resource development alongside social projects.
