Saxo Bank's liberal formulation of CSR policy

One of the companies that do not have a publicly available CSR strategy, Saxo Bank, and Berlingske Business explained its reasons as follows:

"Saxo Bank's founders have always believed that it was genuine social responsibility to give people a job, so they are able to pay taxes to the state in the country they are engaged in. Therefore, they have been focusing on creating a business which provides employment to people, "said Saxo Bank's press officer, Kasper Elbjørn.

With an argument that it should be socially responsible to secure jobs in the community, we knew came to the broadest possible formulation of the CSR concept , and the attitude seems very libertal. One might better have argued in the socially responsible if the bank had a desire to create such a good work or make room in the bank particularly vulnerable in the labor market.

Saxo Bank does not reject at a later time to formulate a CSR policy, but it must harmonize with its special values.
