Corporate Responsibility
Leading the way to a brighter future,
coast to coast.
A Message from Our CEO
2021 was an extraordinary year for PNC. With our acquisition of BBVA USA and continued organic expansion, we are now a coast-to-coast Main Street Bank with a customer and employee base that is more diverse than ever before. Our management of environmental, social and governance issues continues to play an increasingly important role in our ability to succeed.
- William S. Demchak, PNC Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
Our Commitment, At a Glance
We are committed to our employees, customers, communities and environment because it’s right. It’s right for our company, our people and our world. And our commitment to that belief has never been stronger.
In 2021, we conducted our third priority issues analysis to ensure that our priority issues reflect rapidly evolving environmental, social and governance considerations, and stakeholder interests. Through this process, we identified several issues of greatest interest to our stakeholders and where we believe we have the greatest opportunity to impact through our ongoing business activities. These issues include information security; diversity and inclusion; talent management and engagement; ESG risk management; customer privacy; ethics and compliance; and financial access and inclusion.
