Bank Millennium takes into account environmental and social risks in the processes of customer assessment, granting loans and financing projects, taking into account not only the risks associated with the sectors of activity in which clients operate, but also their functioning in the context of environmental, social and management issues (related to corporate governance). The Bank identifies sectors of activity or projects that do not correspond to the commitment made by the Bank in the field of environmental protection, promoting sustainability, combating climate change, preserving biodiversity and minimising social risks.

Declaration from art. 5 SFDR: Transparency of remuneration policies in relation to the integration of sustainability risks

The policy of remuneration of employees in Bank Millennium, including risk takers, ensures transparent remuneration principles and their connection with the risk management strategy

The employee remuneration policy in the Bank Millennium S.A. Group also defines the principles relating to incentive mechanisms, the design of which is aimed at avoiding stimulating (encouraging) employees to take risks in the field of sustainability factors and rewarding business results achieved as a result of introducing these risks into operations. At the same time, incentive mechanisms ensure their consistency with the objectives adopted by the Bank in the Sustainability Policy.
