More than 30 years creating total value

Consistent with our social origin, starting in 2020, we will begin work to clarify our sustainable management. We have been creating total value for more than 30 years, so this work seeks to align and maintain our management in line with the best global practices in the sector, in social, environmental and governance matters.

Aligned with our ESG Strategic Policy, we have defined our sustainability strategy, the progress of which will be reported periodically to the Sustainability Operating Committee. We will do our best to measure our impact and communicate it annually, aligned with international standards that are useful for both Gentera and our stakeholders, using a common language and with the transparency that characterizes us. We understand that sustainable management generates greater impact by teaming up with other entities in society. That is why we are members of the Sustainability Committee of the Mexican Banking Association and the Mexican Stock Exchange. Our participation allows us to stay abreast of relevant issues and strengthen ties with companies that, like us, are committed to creating opportunities in a responsible manner.
