Sustainability at Comerica:  A Journey Begun

Comerica understands "sustainability" as an approach to conducting business that seeks to meet the needs of the present in ways that do not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their needs.  We recognize that the prosperity and well-being of the people, businesses, and communities we serve today – as well as those we will serve tomorrow – depend on sustained access to the natural resources provided by a healthy environment and to the social and human resources provided by healthy communities. We are therefore committed to protecting and preserving the environment and to enhancing the human and social capital of the communities in which we do business. 

Finding solutions to the complex challenges of today’s world – rapid population growth, poverty, the decline of natural ecosystems, water and resource scarcity, global climate change, and energy security, among others – requires new ways of thinking and an ability to understand how economic, social, and environmental systems interrelate and affect one another.  We believe that integrating such an understanding into the ways we do business will not only serve the best interests of people and the planet but will also improve our company's business performance and enable us to create long-term value for our shareholders and other stakeholders.
