To us this worthy cause presents an ideal opportunity to make a meaningful contribution towards conserving the noble Asian Elephants, creatures that have long been closely associated with countries throughout this region. We want to be able to help spread a message this important, and to impart the value of conservation to future generations.

Furthermore, our commitment to Elephant Parade Singapore 2011 is very much in line with one of the key tenets of sustainability at ABN AMRO, be it to place clients, employees, shareholders, society and the environment first in all that we do and to strive to minimise our impact on the earth's precious resources.
