Demonstrated progress

• Delivery of bespoke human rights and modern slavery training and insight sharing with the Group Executive Committee and Group Board as part of the 2025 Board Training programme. • To support the design of an escalation process to report modern slavery, and in collaboration with Unseen UK, we facilitated workshops with colleagues from across the Group. We retained our Tier 2 rank in the annual CCLA modern slavery benchmark

Reported risks and mitigations

• Risk: High risk suppliers linked to sector risk in the UK i.e construction
• Area: Within your supply chains
• Tier: Tier 2 suppliers Tier 3 suppliers and below
• Group: Other vulnerable groups
• Location: United Kingdom
• Mitigation: Through collaboration with Unseen UK we carried out worker wellbeing visits across construction sites, where offices are being developed for the Group. These visits were designed to support our shared commitment to safe and inclusive environments for operatives. Interviews conducted by Unseen UK followed a structured framework aligned with International Labour Organization (ILO) indicators and the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) Base Code, ensuring a robust and recognised approach.
• Risk: Lending risk
• Area: Within your own operations
• Group: Migrants
• Mitigation: We enhanced our ESG risk assessment within the credit risk process by adopting a more targeted, risk-based methodology for Commercial Banking clients with direct lending relationships. This approach recognises that ESG factors, including human rights and modern slavery risks can translate into material credit, regulatory, and financial risks for our clients and therefore impact the Group.
• Risk: Modern slavery as an economic crime
• Group: Migrants Refugees Children
• Mitigation: The Group takes a proactive role in identifying potential perpetrators and the Group’s Financial intelligence Unit (GFIU) unit has made human trafficking and modern slavery a primary area of focus. The GFIU seeks to better understand the threat to the Group to make accurate and insightful assessments that inform our risk-based approach and response.
