In 2021 we consulted with stakeholders and
completed ESG materiality assessment,
enabling us to define the Group's material
topics (shaded on the matrix)
We have grouped material ESG topics into
four key areas: employee empowerment,
financial inclusion, communities, and risk
management & governance, with metrics and
KPIs defined for each area
We published our first TCFD-aligned climate
disclosures in the Group's Annual Report and
Accounts 2021, with information on
preliminary climate-related risk assessments;
we will be building on and enhancing our
existing capabilities to implement effective
climate risk and opportunity management
processes going forward
Bank of Georgia established an Environmental
and Social Impact Committee, comprising
Management Board and senior managers
across the Bank, to oversee the
implementation of policies and processes
related to ESG management of the Bank's
lending portfolio. The Committee will be
reporting to the full Board semi-annually
