Sustainable Business Principles
This theme relates to our principle of being a responsible citizen

Doing business in a responsible way that recognises our wider influences as a company

“At RBS we are now approaching the completion of our restructuring and the rebuilding of a bank that will be safe, strong and sustainable. Our attention is now turning to building a really good bank and one that has customers and community at the heart of what it does. Well integrated Environmental, Social and Ethical (ESE) considerations are important components of how we manage risk. Doing the right thing and thinking for the long term will be essential in supporting our customers to achieve their ambitions and those of wider society.
