Corporate responsibility

What corporate responsibility means to Westpac

Westpac's commitment to corporate responsibility is a simple one. The bank believes that it is only by fully integrating corporate responsibility into the way it does business that it can sustainably enhance shareholder value.

To Westpac, it means conducting its business so that it meets its financial, social and environmental responsibilities in an aligned way. At its core, it is simply about having a set of values and behaviours that underpin its everyday activities, its transparency, its desire for fair dealings, its treatment of its people, its attitudes towards and treatment of its customers and its links into the community.
