illimity Bank S.p.A. (“illimity” or the “Bank”) presents its first Voluntary  Consolidated Non-Financial Statement (NFS) pursuant to the Italian Legislative Decree no. 254/2016  and announces that it already achieved carbon neutrality at a Group level in 2020. 

Since starting activities in 2019, the Bank has always placed specific emphasis on environmental,  social and governance (“ESG”) issues, and taking a native approach has embarked on a path of  building these into the Group’s strategies, processes and governance. This commitment is also  reflected in the Group’s decision to prepare its first voluntary NFS, continuing the reporting and  transparency process started last year with the publication of its Sustainability Profile. 

With its first Non-Financial Statement, illimity provides a wide range of information on its ESG  performance to all its stakeholders. The report – based on the figures as of 31 December 2020 – has  been prepared in compliance with the GRI Sustainability Reporting Standards (“GRI Standards”)  – “Core” option, to which voluntary qualitative and quantitative indicators have been added. The  preparation of this report, in the name of the digital innovation that has always set the Bank apart,  involved all the main corporate functions and divisions using an ESG Digital Governance 

collaborative platform. 

Rosalba Casiraghi, illimity’s Chairperson, stated: The illimity Group’s first Sustainability Report  represents an important moment for sharing the responsibilities that guide us in helping people,  families and businesses to unleash and enhance their potential with all of our stakeholders. I am  especially proud of also chairing the Sustainability Committee, testifying our strong commitment to  ESG issues, an involvement that unites us all, from the Bank’s top management to its single functions  and areas”. 

Corrado Passera, illimity’s CEO, commented: “We are continuing our commitment to ensuring solid  profits for people who have invested in illimity, the innovative project which at the same time is aiming  to be useful to society as a whole and able to provide a boost towards achieving sustained and  sustainable growth in our country. Italy can and must reactivate its economic and social potential this  year. And we in illimity intend to play our part in that process”
