Responsible investments
Our ambition is to obtain a basic knowledge of the operations of the companies we invest in and, above all, thoroughly examine the sustainability of these business operations. We apply an active asset management approach. All asset management is conducted in a responsible manner. The responsible investment process applies to all funds managed by the Bank of Åland as well as to our broader asset management business.
About sustainability
The Bank of Åland’s ambition is to be the preferred value-generating bank for ambitious people and companies that value relationships. We strive to run our business sustainably in the long term − financially as well as socially and environmentally. This requires us to be aware of how our operations and way of running our business affect individuals, society and the earth, now and in the future.
Whistleblowing
We are committed to a culture of respect and a high level of ethical standards. This means that we work proactively to prevent and detect serious violations, misconduct, and irregularities in the business in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Responsible lending
We shall mainly finance housing for private individuals and support our customers' savings and investment activities. By ensuring our customers' repayment capacity, we can conduct responsible and sustainable lending.
