For Caisse des Dépôts, as with any other large company or institution, contributing to sustainable development involves seeking performance on three levels: economic, of course, but also social and environmental. These performances are measured by their direct impact on society.

As a major financial institution serving the country, Caisse des Dépôts is recognized for its major economic role and its benefits to society while supporting national and local governments. Currently, Caisse des Dépôts continues to make progress in recognizing its social responsibility in these areas, and increasingly, in the environmental area.

Its activities have an impact on local and regional development, company development and employment as well as on inter-generational, societal and economic solidarity. Similarly, its engineering and services subsidiaries in the transportation, real estate, infrastructure and leisure sectors are directly involved in societal and environmental challenges. Finally, as a major institutional investor, Caisse des Dépôts focuses on generating a long-term return on is investments, an essential condition for sustainable development.

To help meet these challenges, Caisse des Dépôts has created a sustainable development department to coordinate and promote these activities and has adopted a three-part approach:

• social and environmental responsibility

• socially responsible investing

• the fight against global warming
