2010 marked the eleventh year that Barclays has reported on its environmental and social performance and, for the first time, the Report has been published online alongside the Annual Report. The Report has been independently assured by Ernst & Young and meets the requirements of a Type 2 assurance engagement as defined by AA1000AS.
Highlights include:
Barclays, which has reported against the G3 indicator protocols and its Financial Sector Supplement since 2007, is a major global financial services provider engaged in retail banking, credit cards, corporate and investment banking, and wealth management with an extensive international presence.
Citizenship is one of Barclays four execution priorities. Chief Executive Bob Diamond said: “Citizenship is not peripheral to our business, but rather lies at the heart of what we do - which is to employ Barclays unique resources, expertise and people to support our customers, clients and communities.”
