Social Dividend Model

Based on the strategy and in the 3 axes that reflect how we address our themes and material Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), identified with the participation of our stakeholders, we have defined the Social Dividend Model for the years 2022-2024  that integrates the three dimensions of sustainability: environmental, social and governance.

Comprising 3 programmes, goals for 2024 and various initiatives, the model with quarterly monitoring of our ESG performance meets Novobanco's strategic targets, which involve adopting the best sustainability practices in order to become an ESG benchmark in Portugal.
