Social Responsibility

ESG Principles

Sustainable development for us is adherence to the principles of business humanization, responsibility to society and the environment along with high quality corporate governance. In the long term both business and society as a whole will benefit from the implementation of the principles of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance).

The business of Derzhava Bank is environmentally friendly and socially responsible since we work with enterprises that are somehow related to the environment and the social sphere. We have many clients who build schools, kindergartens, landscaping yards, playgrounds. There is a pool of clients who are engaged in the processing of garbage, land reclamation and improving the efficiency of utilities in terms of heating and water treatment. All of them are doing a good deed, and our guarantees are an integral part of their business.

We have drastically reduced the consumption of paper in the office, actively introducing digital workflow into business processes. We have reduced the number of servers and opted for cloud technologies and energy-saving equipment.

Personnel Policy

The bank's personnel policy is aimed at careful selection of people who are not only highly qualified, but also share our values (focus on results, maximum efficiency, adaptability to technology, creativity, customer care, mutual assistance in the team).

Many people have been working at Derzhava Bank for years and even decades because it is interesting, stable, and comfortable with us. Derzhava provides an opportunity for both horizontal and vertical growth, and the path from a courier to a serious leader is a reality in the bank.

Caring for employees is an important component of a successful, long-term business. The social package of Derzhava employees includes: corporate programs of health insurance, payments for anniversaries of work in a bank, for the birth of children, weddings, etc. Everyone has the opportunity to receive free trainings, improve their skills, participate in banking or investment seminars and conferences.

There are many graduates of Moscow State University named after M. V. Lomonosov in the team.
