Our Sustainability Strategy has a comprehensive approach and is based on five strategic pillars, which include specific initiatives that contribute to creating shared value, as well as achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

In 2024, we carried out for the first time the double materiality assessment. This exercise allowed us to identify the most important topics for the company and confirm that our actions are aligned with the expectations of our stakeholders and with the global sustainability objectives.

Strategic Pillars

  • “Our Sustainability Strategy not only reflects our commitment to meeting market demands, but also our financial expectations and excellence in service.”
×
  • Offer value-added products and services to policyholders, supported by efficient operations both in the use of resources and in claims handling, leveraging the potential of technology in our operations.
×
  • Work closely with agents, service office teams, and providers, supporting their training and operations to help drive the company’s sustainable strategy and ensure that such strategy is fully implemented in every process.
×
  • Promote a culture of prevention, insurance awareness, and financial education throughout the community. Especially in Latin America, where infrastructure and driving culture lack certain strengths, it is important to contribute to responsible driving and road behavior. We promote respect among all who share public roads and spaces, aiming to raise awareness in people.
×
  • Strengthen the talent and development of our employees, valuing diversity as well as their well-being. Promote constructive leadership and a strong culture supported by internal communication.
×
  • Operate in alignment with the company’s values, under ethical and conduct guidelines established by a solid corporate governance framework. We integrate sustainability criteria into decision-making. In addition, we seek to have a transition plan for both senior management and board members, compensation practices that encourage long-term talent retention and experience, and a Board of Directors with diversity and gender equity, as well as independent members who safeguard objectivity.

Information security

We strive to protect information as an integral part of our operations. Through the Information Security Department, we strengthen our systems to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of the data we manage. We monitor our infrastructure for potential threats and promote a culture of shared responsibility by establishing information security guidelines for our entire workforce and suppliers, whom we include in compliance with standards and controls that ensure the confidentiality of our clients' and company's information.
