Campaign Analyses : Introduction

a clear message
In this section, recent or ongoing campaigns and alliances are reviewed to establish whether the bank's primary interest is marketing benefit or advancement of the issues, as it claims. Previous reviews have included the bank's involvement with Greenpeace, RSPB, Christian Aid, Amnesty International (UK), Landmines, Fairtrade coffee, Third World debt, Refugees, Climate Change and Combating Financial Exclusion. This year, the Cluster Bombs campaign and the Ethical Purchasing Index will be reviewed. In both cases, engagement has been extensive and varied. Both analyses have been chosen and written by the auditor, ethics etc..., who has interviewed experts from independent organisations to provide assurance that the bank's story as presented is balanced.
