Saga Capital understands that not only do companies have an economic impact on their environment but also a considerable geographical and social impact. Therefore, it is important that the company always takes account of its social responsibility in both its internal and external activities, i.e. equally in the company’s communications with customers, employees, service providers and society at large.
Since its establishment, Saga Capital has actively supported social issues in its environment and has provided over 100 grants to diverse projects, both large and small. Among other things, the company has formulated the policy of keeping Christmas expenses to a minimum in order to provide a deserving cause with a substantial grant instead. The company's employees have for the past two years elected to have the company's Christmas grant paid to Maedrastyrksnefnd (the Society for Assistance to Mothers). Among other projects especially dear to our heart are various educational grants, such as support for young innovators and for cultural and musical events.
Saga Capital believes that corporate social responsibility should not be limited to the provision of grants, but rather that it can have a positive impact on society by diverse means and can set a good example. In light of past events in the Icelandic business sector, Saga Capital is of the opinion that it is extremely important that the company guard its reputation and impartiality and continue to operate, as hitherto, sincerely and in an open and transparent manner
