A tax policy in favor of the common interest
Both a driver for action and a source of inspiration for all the group’s initiatives, the purpose of Crédit Mutuel Arkéa is concretely reflected in its corporate mission roadmap, through which Crédit Mutuel Arkéa aims to enhance its positive impact as well as its overall performance.
This resolutely structuring act is part of an approach initiated as early as 2019. Crédit Mutuel Arkéa was then the first banking institution in France to seize the opportunity presented by the Pacte Law to establish a purpose.
This purpose defines the deep meaning that Crédit Mutuel Arkéa assigns to its professions and activities, as well as how it defines its usefulness in relation to society and the planet.
In this context of social responsibility, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa, a major player in the financing of the real economy, wished to formalize and publish a fiscal policy, outlining its current governance and operations as well as its commitments to tax citizenship, enabling it to contribute fully to the common good and public finances through the payment of various taxes and levies.
This policy primarily contributes to the following commitments of the purpose:
- Commitment 1: “Make our decisions with a balanced approach between financial performance and positive social and environmental impact, through the exercise of cooperative governance rooted in our territories.”
- Commitment 3: “Develop territorial cooperation and engage for local vitality.”
The fiscal policy describes the commitments and general framework that guide Crédit Mutuel Arkéa and its subsidiaries regarding the taxes and levies stipulated by the tax regulations of the countries in which they operate.
