Sustainability is the ability of businesses to create long-term value while, at the same time, preserving the environment and acting for the common good. This is all the more evident for multinationals with a worldwide presence, such as Generali, for their impact and influence go beyond the perimeter of their stock capitalisation and short-term financial performance.
Generali’s purpose - “Enable people to shape a safer future by caring for their lives and dreams” refers to this vision. Our role is about creating long-lasting value focusing on relevant megatrends that will shape the business and society, keeping into perspective the long-term impact on all our stakeholders: not only shareholders and clients, but also employees, distributors, suppliers, local communities, the environment, future generations and society at large.
