In line with DBP’s commitment to transparency and accountability, we have been publishing an annual Sustainable Development Report (SOR) since 2008. This is our fourth SOR, and it was prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the most widely accepted sustainability reporting framework in the world. This report provides comprehensive information about the economic, social, and environmental performance of DBP in 2011. It provides a general description of the Bank’s sustainable development policy and how this is reflected in the way we manage our business.
