Annual Strategy Summits involving Board members, employees and customers have played a key role in defining particular aspects of the Bank’s strategy, including role, values, and vision. The objective of the Bank´s strategy is to create and deliver long-term sustainable value for all our stakeholders. 

Íslandsbanki is one of Iceland's leading companies. As a large workplace with a very broad client base, the bank has made it a priority to maintain a good relationship with its immediate environment and customers. Íslandsbanki endeavours to bring a progressive, professional and positive approach to all its activities and believes that if it can be guided by those values, it can build a responsible, open and reliable bank that plays a proactive role in the enhancement of the community and environment in which it operates.

Íslandsbanki offers its employees good working conditions and enticing opportunities in a variety of ways. The objective of Íslandsbanki is to recruit, strengthen and retain skilled and reliable staff.

Íslandsbanki endeavours to create a secure working environment which places an emphasis on non-discrimination, clear vision, transparent working methods and the active participation of its employees in, among other things, the strategy building process of the bank.

Íslandsbanki implemented its policy on the sale of bank assets in 2017. The aim of the policy is to support transparency, objectivity, equality and efficiency in the bank's decision making process regarding the sale of assets.
