ADVISORY BOARDS
Each business unit has its own advisory board composed of external and independent members.

Members are also called upon to provide recommendations on strategic planning, corporate governance, policies aimed at ensuring compliance with applicable laws, risk identification and the financial performance of the company, and more.
Our clients expect us to ensure the protection of their personal information, which is an absolute priority for us.
We are committed to maintaining policies, procedures, standards and guidelines across the enterprise to help protect the personal information of our clients and colleagues.
Our personal information protection commitments, including the privacy statements available on the websites of our business units, inform our clients of how we protect information and the confidentiality of information, explain how we collect, use and disclose information about them and describe their rights and individual choices.
We aim to make our policies and practices clear and accessible so that clients can find answers about how we manage information concerning them.
We are proud to encourage our colleagues in their professional journey and to support their development through career opportunities with us.
Our hybrid work model (remote or in-office) is adjusted according to the operational needs of teams and provides the flexibility and security necessary to ensure the realization of our mission.
We offer high-quality IT and cybersecurity services. Each employee is equipped with the most efficient devices and IT systems, adapted to their role.
Diversity and inclusion are important to us. We are committed to evolving our current practices to better represent the community within our organization. We know that the integration of cultures plays an important role in the innovation of our practices.
We encourage personal development and promote ongoing training to allow our employees to grow within the organization.
We offer training on personal finance in collaboration with key partners.
Beyond our commercial purpose and as a responsible company, we wish to care for the communities we serve. Philanthropy contributes to maintaining the balance between the commercial and social roles of our companies. It supports our commitment to give back to the community.
By providing our support, whether financial or in the form of volunteering, we express our vision of being a source of constructive capital, aligned with our fundamental values of care, respect and integrity.
OUR CAUSE: EDUCATION
Alesco and its business units deeply believe that education is one of the best ways to help underserved populations improve their prospects by giving them the tools and knowledge that will provide them with the means to change their reality. Education allows us to become fully aware of the choices and opportunities available to us, opening the horizon of our ambitions and creativity.
Education can offer freedom through the multiplication of choices we can make daily. Some habits or beliefs that limit us can be transmitted by those around us or acquired in our past. Education can help us go beyond these acquired beliefs and explore the full potential of each person.
