Accountability
Grievances

LBBW operates a Complaints mechanism which can be used to "report information relating to human rights and environment risks and breaches of duty". It can be accessed here.

This page evaluates LBBW's responses to instances of alleged human rights violations linked to its finance, raised by civil society organisations. It is not intended to be exhaustive, but covers selected impacts raised by BankTrack and other civil society partners since 2016. For the full scoring methodology, see here. For more information about BankTrack's evaluation of bank responses to human rights impacts, see the 2021 report "Actions speak louder: assessing bank responses to human rights violations".
