DSK Bank is one of the pioneers in Bulgaria in terms of CSR

DSK Bank is one of the pioneers in Bulgaria in terms of corporate social responsibility (CSR) as well. It was one of the first companies and the first bank in the country to issue an annual CSR report as the first visible step towards a structured SCR policy. It is not by accident that in 2009 the Bank received two awards in the competition organized by Pari newspaper for the socially responsible company of the year – in the category Charity, which is the core and starting point for the setting up of CSR practices, and for innovative approach to CSR. The latter award was given to DSK Bank for turning its efforts on improving the financial culture of its employees and clients into a DSK Bank’s trait.

Deservedly, in 2011 DSK Bank was awarded Causes 2011 prize for its support to SOS Kinderdorf Bulgaria. In 2011 the Bank became a gold corporate SOS family sponsor, undertaking a commitment to provide full annual financial support to two SOS families. In 2012 the Bank reiterated its commitment, turning into tradition its empathy with children lacking in parental care.

Another CSR achievement are the Bank’s sustainable environmental initiatives, sealed with contracts with companies  specialized in paper, office equipment and tyre recycling, as well as the construction and reconstruction of the Bank’s premises according to the new corporate vision and in compliance with the Energy Efficiency Law and the Environmental Law. For its impressive green concept, underlying the design of the new administrative building of the Bank’s Head Office and the reconstruction of other Bank’s buildings in the country, in  2011 DSK Bank was pronounced The Greenest Company of 2010 in the first national competition, organized by b2b Media
