What you will find

The Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV) invites banking professionals to complete a short, confidential assessment designed to explore how closely their institutions align with the six Principles of Values-Based Banking.

The assessment is not an audit, nor does it constitute a formal evaluation. It is a practical first step, helping banks gain clarity, direction and insight into their values-based banking journey.

You will receive a customised report with your bank’s results to help start the conversation.

This preliminary self-assessment offers your organisation an opportunity to:

Reflect on how values are embedded in your bank's business model

Understand your organisation's alignment with GABV Principles

Identify if your bank is progressing towards becoming values-driven
