Management for Sustainability

We believe that the development and implementation of long-lasting actions strengthen the commitment to the sustainable development of Brazil, reduce the impact on the environment and ensure the expanded management of risks and opportunities for our shareholders, employees and society as a whole. To this end, we follow the ESG model, which brings three key drivers (environmental, social and governance practices) to the measurement of the sustainability and social impact of our investments and helps to better manage expectations of future financial performance based on risk and return.

For us, ESG is more than a concept. It is a commitment of Itaúsa.
