As a financial institution, we face the risk of having our assessment of a
product or service we offer, or an investment we have made, being socially
or environmentally responsible, contested by customers, regulators, or
third parties. The mounting interest from investors and regulators in ESG
factors and the greater demand and scrutiny of ESG-related disclosures
by financial institutions have also increased our risk of being perceived
as, or accused of, making inaccurate or misleading statements about
the investment strategies of our self-managed investment funds, or our
ESG endeavors or initiatives, commonly known as greenwashing. Such
perceptions or accusations have the potential to harm our reputation,
trigger legal or regulatory actions, and adversely affect our business.
Hence, the importance of a robust governance framework, as shown in the
Sustainable Finance chapter (pages 33-35). For further details on negative
impacts, please refer to Form 20-F (page 201). https://cms.santander.com.
