Setting up a central purchasing channel for promotional gift items is an important part of the Bank’s CSR activities.

Handelsbanken is also a signatory of the UN Global Compact, cementing the Bank’s express support for universal human rights.

One consequence of this commitment is that we ensure that all suppliers from whom the Bank buys items from have a collective bargaining agreement, comply with work environment regulations, have policies against the giving and taking of bribes and against child labour.
