Additional entity-specific disclosure

VIG is aware of its responsibility towards customers, employees, shareholders, business partners, society and the general public as a whole. This goes hand in hand with its aim to achieve a positive impact – including sponsorship, donations and corporate volunteering (company volunteering programmes), such as the Group-wide Social Active Day. The focus is on promoting an active culture of engagement, the impact of which is reflected in the breadth and sustainability of the activities, not in quantitative target figures. Corporate volunteering is also part of the sustainability programme (see ESRS 2 MDR‑P “Policies adopted to manage material sustainability matters”). VIG attaches great importance to continuous cooperation with its sponsorship partners, as demonstrated by its many long-standing partnerships. The principles followed in this regard are described in G1-5 “Political influence and lobbying activities”. In 2025, donations and sponsorships were undertaken in the following areas.

In addition to the categories listed in the above table, various initiatives were supported to help raise awareness of risk provision. The VIG Family Fund will continue to be available to employees of the Ukrainian companies for reconstruction in Ukraine. VIG also supported charitable causes, art projects and actions to improve road safety. In addition, VIG provided sponsorship for industry associations and events such as networking events.

VIG encourages its employees to volunteer for social projects. Every year, VIG demonstrates its support for social engagement, charity and solidarity internationally with its Social Active Day. As part of the Social Active Day, employees can dedicate one working day per year to actively supporting a socially important issue or project. In the 2025 reporting year, a total of 16,163 (2024: 14,398) employees from 54 (2024: 48) VIG companies and 20 (2024: 20) countries participated in the Social Active Day. This engagement can take many forms, from helping out in the social market to cooking for people on low incomes, supporting the soup counter, visiting care facilities, refugee shelters, neighbourhood centres or even gardening and collecting litter. What these activities have in common is people offering their time and energy for the benefit of their fellow human beings and the environment. Through these actions, VIG promotes a corporate culture characterised by responsibility for others and the environment and social engagement, contributing to environmental protection and improving the quality of life in all countries in which VIG operates. As employees and stakeholders are increasingly placing importance on environmental and social aspects, these corporate volunteering activities can have a positive impact on the perception of VIG as an attractive employer and on its general reputation.
