Lovćen osiguranje and the Triglav Group, silver sponsor of the upcoming Western Balkans ESG Summit, have demonstrated a clear commitment to sustainable development, which has been reflected in their business practices. The Triglav Group’s mission to create a safer future is closely linked with their pursuit of sustainability goals, which promotes the transition to a sustainable society and reduces the impact of climate change. In their strategic activities, both in insurance and asset management, the Group remains focused on transitioning to a climate-neutral and climate-change-resistant circular economy. The incorporation of ESG aspects into business processes has resulted in an expansion of products and services that promote social and environmental benefits. Their efforts have not gone unnoticed, as the focus on changing client needs has resulted in high client satisfaction.
In a statement by Nina Kelemen, Head of sustainable business at the Triglav Group, she said, "In Triglav Group we are promoting digital business, strengthening an awareness of sustainability among our employees, carrying out comprehensive measurements of our carbon footprint, and focusing hard on the energy renovation of our buildings. Our portfolio already includes insurance for claims arising from damage caused by climate change, as well as solar power and micro-mobility insurance. As far as managing our own portfolios is concerned, we are increasing the share of sustainable and green investment classes aimed at financing the green transition."
The Triglav Group has demonstrated its commitment to sustainable development through various campaigns and projects, such as For a Better Tomorrow, Let’s Clean Up Our Mountains, Children of Triglav, Young Hopes, the Triglav Run, and Driving Refresher, as well as the Vozimse.si platform. These initiatives are a clear indication of the company’s desire to create a better future. Under the Securing the Future project, the Triglav Group is working with more than 200 partners to promote and achieve the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. Each month, they dedicate themselves to a specific goal, encouraging the general public to act sustainably. The project’s main message is that each of us is responsible for securing a more sustainable, green, and just future, and that every action counts towards achieving this goal. As for measuring and reporting their impact on the environment and society in Southeast Europe, the Triglav Group has adopted an action plan for sustainable business that includes key strategic activities and legislative requirements for individual departments and divisions. Sustainability-related activities are coordinated and directed by the Sustainable Development Coordinator, monitored by the Compliance and Sustainable Development Committee, and decided on by the parent company’s Management Board.
"We are increasing the share of sustainable and green investment classes aimed at financing the green transition. By carrying out systematic measurements, we are able to ensure high levels of customer satisfaction, develop our employees’ expertise and competence, implement effective health promotion programs, and promote multidimensional diversity and intergenerational cooperation", concludes Kelemen.
“From Triglav to Lovćen, and now to Porto Montenegro, the voice of Triglav Group and Lovćen osiguranje surely contributes to the promising ESG-based future of our region, and we are honored to have them as one of our sponsors, said Biljana Braithwaite, CEO of Sustineri Partners, organiser of the Summit.
