At YES BANK, Responsible Banking is deeply embedded within the DNA of our organization wherein we incorporate sustainability principles in our core business operations, consistently keeping triple bottom line objectives – People, Profit, Planet – at the forefront of doing business. This recognition gains further importance in light of the fact that this was the second year that the Bank was acknowledged for its sustainable initiatives by the CII-ITC Sustainability Awards.”
