Benefit Corporation

 

In the economic scenario, the importance of pursuing, in all sectors, the UN “17 goals of the 2030 Agenda” for "Sustainable Development" is increasingly evolving1.

In this regard, CBI has developed an evolution plan in order to evaluate how its role as an industry utility can bring value in terms of ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) for the whole Italian financial industry.     

The acquisition of the qualification of Benefit Corporation, on May 3 2023, is one of the main steps of this virtuous path and   allows us to strengthen  our commitment to adopting a regenerative business paradigm, flanking  our corporate purpose with a series of significant initiatives of common benefit expected Bylaws.

 
 
 

Impact Report: what is it

The Impact Report outlines CBI's contribution to a paradigm shift that allows us to play an active role in improving  the environment around us  on the basis of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.  In addition to specifying concrete commitments undertaken , the Company confirms its desire to take further action, enabling it to pursue the common benefit goals set out in the Bylaws of CBI.

The Impact Report is a valuable tool that we will use to inform  our stakeholders  of our ongoing commitment to  create value for Italian citizens, businesses and manufacturers and as a means to developing new initiatives capable of generating social and environmental value.

The Report includes:

  • an overview of the results achieved and the initiatives implemented as the date of the year before with regard to our common benefit goals, including a number of important high-impact success stories;
  • the commitments and goals that CBI intends to achieve in the following year;
  • the overall impact assessment obtained through the standard Benefit Impact Assessment (BIA).
 
 

The updating of the BIA and drafting of the Impact Report was performed with the support of NATIVA, a Regenerative Design Company, with the aim of assessing the report's compliance with legal requirements, the robustness and consistency of the information, and the strength of the updated BIA score.

CBI looks at the future in a responsible way, to help build a better tomorrow.

CBI intends to continue in this important path undertaken, believing it to be of extreme value to its customers, its employees, its shareholders and the communities in which it operates.
