The Global Alliance of Banking on Values is a network of independent banks using finance to deliver sustainable economic, social and environmental development.
This global initiative aims to shift the focus from short-term gains to long-term sustainability, from shareholder interests to the well-being of individuals and communities.
TISA Bank is a member of the Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV), a network of banks and financial institutions committed to advancing positive change in the banking and finance industry.
In a world where profit often takes precedence over principles, it is refreshing to see a movement that seeks to bring values back to banking. Banking on Values Day, celebrated annually on November 7th, is an occasion to recognize and promote the importance of ethical banking practices.
These banks and financial institutions, spread across various countries, share a common vision: to use finance as a force for good. They believe that banking should not only be about making money, but also about making a positive impact on society and the environment.
This year, TISA Bank joins other GABV members to celebrate and reinforce the message the finance plays a crucial role in shaping our economy, society and the environment.
Under the theme ‘Transforming Banking, Transforming Lives’, TISA Bank will for the second time celebrate Banking on Values day through organized events and activities planned out to engage employees, customers, and communities.
TISA Bank CEO, Mr Sunil Pokharel said, “TISA Bank’s mission goes beyond just financial services. We want to be a catalyst for change and progress in our nation. We will actively support initiatives that promote education, entrepreneurship, and sustainable development, by investing in our people and communities and we believe we can create a brighter future for all.”
The goal is to create awareness and foster dialogue about the importance of values-based banking. It is a chance to educate individuals about the power they hold as consumers to influence the banking industry by choosing to support ethical banks.
TISA Bank builds on the foundations of ethical banking practices and prioritizes social and environmental values alongside financial performance.
As part of TISA Bank’s goals, we will support local communities and promote financial inclusion. By aligning their activities with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, these banks contribute to the achievement of a more just and equitable society.
Banking on Values Day not only celebrates the achievements of ethical banks but also serves as a reminder of the work that still needs to be done. It highlights the need for more banks to join the movement and embrace values-based banking. It encourages individuals to demand transparency and accountability from their financial institutions.
Together, we can make a difference and reshape the banking industry for the better.
Together we can: “Change Finance to Finance Change.”
