INTRODUCTION

The main purpose of this section is to illustrate the diversity and wide range of corporate social responsibility and sustainability policies and projects launched and supported by Ecobank. Corporate social responsibility refers to the contribution by businesses to sustainable development. It covers a company’s participation in fields such as human rights, human resources, relations with clients, suppliers and other stakeholders, corporate governance, environment and contribution to the community and the society in general. It is increasingly viewed as a strategic issue to ensure the development of a sustainable world and to enhance business competitiveness. It is high on the priority list of a number of international organizations and investors who seek to increase business awareness and involvement.

Ecobank has a dual mission: to build a world class African Bank and to contribute to the economic and Financial development of Africa. We have consistently delivered superior shareholder returns and invested building African Capacity.
