Financial markets are playing an increasingly important role in promoting responsible investment. As trading platforms connecting investors with companies, securities exchanges support the process by incorporating ESG criteria (E-environmental, S-social and G-governance) into their business operations and by promoting and educating market participants in ESG factors. The GPW Group not only focuses on conducting its business in a sustainable and responsible manner but also significantly influences the development of responsible attitudes among participants of the markets it organises.

The Warsaw Stock Exchange and the companies of the GPW Group conduct their operations bearing in mind not only the highest business standards but also social, employee, ethical and environmental concerns.

The GPW Group’s ESG Strategy 2025 implemented in the GPW Group sets out the ambitions and objectives in the area of sustainable development for 2022-2025. The Strategy outlines the main directions of activities in the area of ESG and sustainable development for all companies of the GPW Group.

The GPW Group’s ESG Strategy makes a positive contribution to the achievement of the 17 Global Sustainable Development Goals 2030 set by the UN and adopted by all 193 UN member states including Poland.

The GPW Group actively supports six selected Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which are relevant to the business of the Exchange and its subsidiaries and the role they play on the Polish financial and commodity market and their respective stakeholders.
