The Equator Principles exist already since 2003. UniCredit adopted the Equator Principles in 2003.
Reporting on the Equator Principles
UniCredit must report annually on its implementation of the Equator Principles. All information is supposed to be found here.
- UniCredit is in compliance with its reporting obligations. The 2016 report can be found here.
