Banque Accord, a responsible company, supports:
CRESUS (Regional Chamber for Social Overindebtedness)
CRESUS (Regional Chamber for Social Overindebtedness) is a national participative association created in 1992. It receives, informs and advises people suffering from debt problems and helps them find solutions to their financial, social, legal and psychological difficulties. Since 2004 it has been a federation of nine regional chambers. Banque Accord has allied itself to CRESUS in order to improve the prevention of overindebtedness by means of operations and communal studies (including prevention and treatment tables) relating to access to consumer credit; to help people with debt problems; and to share and increase knowledge and real-life experiences with people suffering from debt problems.
ADIE
ADIE (Association for the right to Economic Initiative) is a national association, recognised for its public utility, that helps people set up their own business and employment when they have been excluded from the labour market and traditional banking system. It was created in 1989 by Maria Nowak to adapt the microcredit principle to the situation in France. Microcredit is very well developed in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Now millions of people around the world make a living from their own business, thanks to this type of funding. Microcredit has been expanding in industrialised countries in Europe and North America for the past fifteen years. Banque Accord has chosen to support ADIE in its operations by creating a free Visa card solely for entrepreneurs funded by the Association. It is a debit card that gives holders access to a modern payment method. In addition, Banque Accord finances the running of the Associations free phone number.
ALLIANCES - Diversity Charter
ALLIANCES is a regional association based in Northern France whose aim is to help companies so that they can improve their performance by showing greater respect to people and the environment, and to promote the social and environmental responsibility that is proof of human and economic progress.
Aims :
- Introduce companies to the social and environmental responsibility approach.
- Expand a company's sense of identity in terms of its social, economic and environmental dimension.
- Improve companies competitiveness and participate in their success and in their opening up to environmental concerns.
Just like 250 other large companies, in 2005 Banque Accord signed the Diversity Charter initiated by Claude Bébéar and the Montaigne Institute, as part of its membership of ALLIANCES. This charter aims to promote diversity in companies through recruitment and career management, and translates into very concrete action.
ARPEGE
Founded in 1984 on the initiative of Claude Casadesus, the ARPEGE association groups together companies and institutions who wish to support the National Orchestra of Lille. As a member of this association, Banque Accord shows its desire to play an active role in the cultural life of Northern France.
