Bank Millennium with the CSR Golden Leaf again

- It is fantastic that the transformation towards sustainable business is not just a temporary trend, but a necessity and that we are actively participating in it. The highest CSR Golden Leaf award received once again is the best confirmation of this –– said Magdalena Trzynadlowska, Director of the Sustainability Office at Bank Millennium.- In 2022, in addition to the measurable effect of reducing own greenhouse gas emissions by over 50% compared to 2020, we expanded our product offer with investment funds promoting ESG aspects, we took action to support refugees from Ukraine and we continued the educational activities of adults and children.
