For detailed information on Key’s corporate responsibility efforts, we encourage you to read our recent Corporate Responsibility Reports.

2023 Corporate Responsibility Report

Key’s annual Corporate Responsibility Report includes measurements associated with the sustainability and societal impact of our investments. Our Corporate Responsibility Report is a companion piece to our Annual Report to shareholders — it provides our stakeholders with an update on the company’s priorities and progress as both a responsible bank and citizen.

We're proud of our nearly 200-year legacy of service to every stakeholder we serve and have a strong, positive outlook for our collective future.

The data reported in the 2023 Corporate Responsibility Report covers the period between January 1 and December 31, 2023. In instances where programs or initiatives were enhanced or introduced in the first quarter of 2024, the narrative description reflects those changes. In this document, Key reports on the corporate responsibility progress of KeyCorp, including KeyCorp’s subsidiary bank, KeyBank National Association.
