Approach to sustainability
Sustainability is the foundation of the future, and Halkbank envisions its role as a driver of positive change. Through strategic activities, innovation, and long-term dedication, the Bank strives to create a balance between economic progress, social equity, and environmental responsibility.
In 2024, Halkbank launched the ambitious “One million seedlings in five years” program in partnership with the National Forests Public Enterprise, aiming to contribute to reforestation and the enhancement of natural resources. This initiative not only reduces the carbon footprint, but also fosters a sense of unity in caring for the environment.
As part of its commitment to energy transition, Halkbank actively supports green initiatives, including financing renewable energy projects and promoting energy efficiency measures. The Bank offers specialized financial products for households and businesses, focusing on investments in insulation, renewable energy sources, and modern heating and cooling systems. These efforts not only reduce costs for users but also significantly contribute to environmental preservation and the transition toward a climate-neutral economy.
Simultaneously, the Bank invests in digitalization and sustainable technologies, enabling efficient and environmentally conscious operations. With advanced solutions for paperless banking, waste management, and energy consumption reduction, Halkbank is laying the foundation for a more sustainable corporate ecosystem.
Through its socially responsible projects, Halkbank continues to strengthen society by supporting education, local communities, and promoting social inclusion. The Bank believes that long-term success lies in creating added value for all - clients, shareholders, employees, and the broader community.
With high ethical standards and a strong commitment to innovation, Halkbank is dedicated to ensuring sustainable growth, raising awareness, and leading positive change. For the Bank, sustainability is not just a goal - but a vision for a brighter and more sustainable future for everyone.
