Non-Financial Report 2017

GRI content index and the UN Global Compact Communication on Progress

Our Non-Financial Report provides a comprehensive disclosure of our material topics for our non-financial performance. Information on financial data is available in our Annual Report 2017. Disclosures included in the report were selected based on a materiality analysis conducted in previous years. Information on in-house ecology as well as information regarding Corporate Social Responsibility activities are not material based on the materiality assessment.

In order to give a better overview, the Non-Financial Report 2017 has been prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards: Core option, including the specific Sector Disclosures for the financial service sector. Information can either be found on the referenced pages in the report, via links or directly in this table. The information outside the Non-Financial Report, e. g. the HR Report are not part of the external limited assurance.

Furthermore, the Non-Financial Report also serves as our Communication on Progress for the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), references are made in the index as well. By participating in the UNGC, we have committed ourselves to preserving internationally recognized human rights, creating socially acceptable working conditions, protecting the environment, and fighting corruption.

Supply chain

Human Rights
In 2017, Deutsche Bank began to fundamentally revise its certification process for suppliers and service providers. In this revised process, more far-reaching environmental and social minimum standards will be applied.
Until the revised certification process is fully implemented in 2018, we want to ensure that the suppliers and service providers we already work with meet the new minimum standards. In 2017, 123 of those who meet the country-specific and industry-specific criteria of our risk-based approach were already subjected to an extensive review. We found that they all have adequate policies and processes in place. The review of existing suppliers and service providers will continue in 2018. Approximately 300 other existing suppliers and service providers that meet the criteria for a necessary review still have to be analysed.
