Key Dimensions

 

The strategy of Santander Bank Polska Group was developed in the spirit of meeting the needs of a modern organization. It is underpinned by the Total Experience direction, where we focus on maximizing the customer and employee experience. As part of the Total Digitalization direction, we continue building digital service channels for our customers and an efficient, digitalized work environment for employees. Total Responsibility, on the other hand, pursues the responsible business agenda not only from an environmental but also from a social perspective.

Strategic Directions

Helping our customers and employees prosper is our purpose and the foundation of our three-year strategy for 2024 - 2026 .

Our actions are people-oriented: we focus on customers and employees. This is why relationships are the focal point of our strategy. We want them to be long-lasting and based on trust. We aim at evoking positive emotions and projecting the image of a bank that is close to people. We believe that caring about the experience will make us stand out on the market. This is what our first strategic direction – Total Experience – is about.

We also know that positive emotions and experience to a large extent depend on the interactions in the digital world. For this reason, with increased determination, we follow the path of digital innovation offering our customers new possibilities in remote channels and ensuring our employees simple and effective processes. This is what our second strategic direction – Total Digitalisation – is about.

Challenges we face as a bank and society require huge responsibility. And for us, responsibility is not just theory but a rule that guides us in our daily operations. We consciously make ethical decisions, keeping in mind our impact on the community and the environment. With a sustainable business model, we create value for customers, employees, shareholders and local communities, working towards a better future for our children and our planet. This is what our third strategic direction – Total Responsibility – is about.

Our path is clearly set – we believe that cooperation, engagement and determination will help us pursue together our strategy and strengthen our market position.

Strategic Goals

Actions taken as part of the three strategic directions are implemented through strategic initiatives, such as strategic programs and projects, initiatives under the Agile model and Group programs. These are regularly monitored and their results are reviewed using qualitative and quantitative metrics. The following are measures that define the Group's ambitions.

Due to the pace and complexity of changes in the macroeconomic environment, the strategy of Santander Bank Polska S.A. is subject to regular reviews which ensures a prompt response to market trends and other changes in the dynamic environment.

Ambitions for 2024–2026 and Delivery of the Strategy

Strategic directions

When setting strategic directions, the Group also defines WHAT its objectives are and HOW they will be delivered so that it can track the progress in delivery of the strategy.
