Our sustainability strategy

At the Warburg Group, sustainability is seen as a guideline that is incorporated into all opera-tional and business areas through our sustainability strategy.

Sustainability is one of the key challenges of our time and will have a major impact on our lives and economies.

As a medium-sized private bank, it is our job to advise our clients comprehensively on sustain-ability opportunities, risks and their effects and to support them with needs-based products. We are leading the way in our own business and operations.

Long-term responsibility

Our sustainability strategy aims to achieve growth and long-term returns, while at the same time cultivating careful use of resources and the environment. The Warburg Group is aware of its social responsibility and always acts with an eye on the consequences of its actions, even in the long term.

In order to consistently meet this requirement, we have set up the following ESG committees:

  • The Warburg ESG Committee further develops the sustainability strategy and monitors its implementation
  • The Warburg ESG Forum facilitates interdisciplinary exchange on ESG projects at an operational level
  • The Warburg Investment Committee defines the minimum ESG investment standards and ensures that they are applied
  • The Corporate Impact Advisory Board plans and coordinates social commitments and donations 
  • The Diversity Working Group speaks up for diversity and inclusion on behalf of employees
