AXA’s business is to protect people over the long term. In this business, trust and solid relationships are paramount. Corporate Responsibility is the demonstration, step by step, day by day, that, through our actions, we deserve the trust of our stakeholders. We believe that we have a role to play in helping to create stronger and more sustainable societies. The current environment has created a lot of distrust but has also confirmed the need for robust and responsible companies. It is important now to re-emphasize how CR is an integral part of how we want to operate.” Henri de Castries, Chairman & CEO, AXA Group.
