Our 2024 Sustainability Report is now available

At Bladex, sustainability is a core part of our business strategy. Our new 2024 Sustainability Report is now available, highlighting the progress we’ve made in integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria and promoting sustainable finance across Latin America and the Caribbean.

This year, we reaffirm our commitment to responsible banking, driven by transparency and impact. Key highlights of the report include:

• An ESG Roadmap and a Key Indicators Dashboard aligned with international standards such as GRI and SASB, enhancing our management and accountability.
• A governance model committed to sustainability, directly overseen by our Anti-Money Laundering, Compliance, and Sustainability Committee.
• Over USD 108 million disbursed in ESG-labeled operations during 2024, supported by our Internal Sustainable Finance Taxonomy.
• A robust Environmental and Social Risk Management System (SARAS), aligned with standards such as the Equator Principles and IFC Performance Standards.
• A diverse and skilled team: 337 employees from 17 nationalities and over 11,700 hours of training provided during the year.
• A proactive approach to cybersecurity, with no incidents reported in 2024 and regional recognition for the leadership of the area.
