Société Générale

We're continuing our summer series exploring the eco-responsible initiatives and solutions deployed within the Group, and after the sensible use of water we're now tackling the subject of waste. ♻️Extending the life cycle of products and materials as long as possible in a virtuous loop (share - reuse - repair - renovate - recycle) is the challenge of the circular economy, which the Group has taken up by deploying measures in its buildings in France and abroad to reduce waste to a minimum.  🚮Eliminate, sort and recycle is the approach that guides the Group, with convincing results: - a reduction of almost 31% in waste per occupant between 2021 and 2023; that’s almost 155 fewer tons of waste in our central buildings in 2023, - a recycling rate that has risen by 10% in one year, reaching 40% by 2023, - 278 kg of event badges recycled in 2022, - 181 tons of biowaste collected in 2023, enabling 30 tons of compost to be created. All of this was achieved thanks to the involvement of everyone. Let’s keep up the momentum!🌿

♻ This summer, we're taking you on a journey to discover the eco-responsible initiatives and solutions deployed by the Group around the world, in favour of sensible water use , waste management, soft mobility and Quality of Life at Work. 🚰 Adopting a sustainable resource management and sensible water use is a priority that contribute to the preservation of biodiversity. All over the world, our employees are concretely committed to reduce the Group's water consumption in our buildings: - rigorous monitoring of water consumption with quantified targets for certain subsidiaries, - using water-saving devices (smart taps, flow aerators, etc) and connected boxes enabling leaks detection in France, - reuse of rainwater in France (for green spaces) and sanitary facilities (use of seawater in Hong Kong), - partial recycling of carwash water (Ayvens in Belgium). All these actions are in line with our commitments as member of the Entreprises pour l'Environnement (EpE) charter who help its members to translate the ecological transition into strategy and actions.🌿

Happy #WorldMusicDay 2024! 🎶 This year again, our staff from all over the world and our partners went on stage to celebrate all genres of music, mirroring the diversity of the Group. From our headquarters in France to Hong-Kong, India, Spain, the Czech Republic, Germany, Luxembourg and many other locations, our offices turned into concert venues where professional and amateur musicians performed and shared their passion for music. And with the launch of our new philanthropic policy announced yesterday, the 2024 edition was all the more special as we extended our support through our own ‘Societe Generale Summer Festival’, mixing music and contemporary art.

Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of celebrating long-time Societe Generale leader Francis Repka, who will be retiring from his Canada Country Head position at the end of June, turning things over to Pierre Osterrath. Francis has been instrumental in continuing the evolution of our Canadian platform, after doing much the same when he was Country Head in Brazil, and before that in key positions for the bank in both Asia and Europe. Beyond my time with Francis, I had a productive trip to Montreal, meeting with staff and clients. Our Canadian offices continue to be an important part of our business – both in the work we do with clients as well as what the teams there do in contributing to our broader Societe Generale Americas franchise. 

It's all about daring to belong! Meet our staff and learn their valuable insights to making a more diverse and inclusive company. 🙏 Thanks for your commitment Michi Alexandru Anton Courtenay Wood Adina Alionte Priya Shetty Edward Chan
