"We are all pleased and proud to work in Switzerland, a country that has long promoted environmentally responsible development.

We are also proud to work for a Group whose history and values are rooted in nature and, more importantly, that has stepped up its efforts in recent years to be a good corporate citizen.

This is no pipe dream or Utopia : we are a bank and will always need to be run efficiently. But we can rise to the common challenge of reconciling the expectations of our clients, co-workers and shareholder with our collective will to contribute to a form of growth that does not jeopardise the future."

C. Gancel, CEO of Crédit Agricole Suisse
