A force for good

Absa aspires to be a truly purpose-led organisation. This means making a proud and positive contribution to the world around us and putting our purpose at the heart of everything we do.

We want to drive measureable material change in  our communities in a way that brings our purpose to live, differentiates us and strengthens our business. To do thus, we will invest significantly in three specific ESG focus areas: financial inclusion; diversity and inclusion; and climate. We selected these areas by considering the relative importance of these matters to our stakeholders, the potential impact on our business, and our strengths and assets.
