Our unique diversity

As an employee, you can help us minimise our environmental impact and support charity through our various initiatives. Like Seeing is Believing, which fights avoidable blindness. We raised $100m to support the programme, two years ahead of schedule.

You can also get involved with Goal, our programme that empowers girls aged between 12 and 19 with the life skills they need to succeed across our footprint. You can choose to work with Goal for one of your three annual volunteer days, or get involved in community work of your choice.  It’s up to you.

Our USD1 billion financing commitment

We’ve launched a USD50 million COVID-19 Global Charitable Fund to help to those affected by the pandemic, to provide short-term relief and longer-term assistance.

    One of the reasons why I’ve stayed with the bank for ten years is that I’m a huge believer of giving back to society and our bank offers a great platform for this.
