Building loyalty through responsible selling & marketing
Our marketing and selling practices are underpinned by our core values in being trustworthy, responsive and courageous helping to protect our reputation and allowing us to build a sustainable business.
Over the past few years, we have established an infrastructure to keep us focused on responsible selling and marketing. Treating our customers fairly, with openness and transparency, is a priority for us.
To give us customer insight, we conduct annual surveys across 25 countries. The information we collect helps us develop products that meet our customers' needs - and delight them with our service. As a result, our 'loyal and positive' score has increased from 66% to 83% over the past four years.
We have also introduced a new sales performance scorecard and we include indicators such as customer complaints in our sales incentive and reward programme. These help our people focus on building and maintaining sustainable, long-term relationships with our customers.
If we receive a customer complaint, we handle it carefully, tracking and monitoring the entire process, from the initial complaint log through to its resolution.
