Sustainability Priorities

Maintaining sustainability areas in parallel with Sabancı Group’s priorities, Aksigorta considers digitalization, technology and innovation as important tools for sustainable development. In the age of society and business world being transformed by technology, practices like artificial intelligence and data analytics increase the efficiency of business processes, while big data allows more accurate decisions to be made. Thanks to the transforming processes through digitalization and technology, companies increase efficiency, and raise the potential for positive influence in environmental and social terms. In this context, managing data security alongside technological transformation is among the prominent risks. Technology and digitalization, while bringing numerous opportunities like competitiveness, efficiency and growth speed increase, also presents risks such as data confidentiality, data security and reliable infrastructure, which directly impact sustainable business models. Therefore, cyber security is the key component that ensures technology and digitalization contribute to the economy and the society, while establishing sustainable business models.

Digital Security Platform, directly associated with Aksigorta’s Sustainable Development Objectives, directly serves three of Sabancı Holding’s sustainability priorities. Group’s “Human and Society” priorities include designing social investment programs creating mutual value; Digital Security Platform directly serves this purpose by raising awareness in the society against cyber risks. In the context of Environmental, Social and Governance Sustainability, Digital Security Platform is within the context of social benefits. Aksigorta considers ensuring the safety of individuals and entities in the virtual world, providing data privacy and data security as a social responsibility.

Aksigorta prioritizes social development as a pathway to sustainable development, supporting active participation of individuals to social and cultural life.

In addition to all of these, prioritizing the Group’s “Environmental Consciousness” aspect covering the climate crisis and circular economy objectives, Aksigorta has become involved in the Green Office program of WWF Turkey as part of its activities for more sustainable business environments. The scope of the program includes reducing resource consumption through effective waste management and increased recycling rate, preventing single-use plastic pollution through drinking water treatment systems and ensuring energy savings through automated lighting and air-conditioning, particularly in the Head Office.
