                Corporate social responsibility
            

                It's the foundation for everything we do
            

                Value for Society
            

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is firmly anchored in our DNA. We help customers optimize their sustainable use of resources to backing important social programs and working with educational institutions around the world to promote the next generation of IT talent. We choose cultural diversity and employees who care about people and progress—now and in the future.

Dr. Peter Schnell, the cofounder of Software AG, laid the foundation for responsible action that lives in our company to this day. Back in the 1990s, he contributed all his stock in the company to launch the Software AG Foundation. It operates as an independent foundation and uses the earnings from its assets to promote ongoing human and social development.

                Appreciation for our stakeholders
            

Our stakeholders are a part of our company. They shape our culture and our values, and we thank them for helping to shape our continued evolution.

                    Our promise
                

For us, corporate social responsibility means showing conscious respect for responsible and sustainable action. For that reason, we embrace values such as trust and respect, openness and transparency above all else. For years, these principles have been used in our customer relationships, our technologies, our partnerships, employee training and decisions on investments in our company—to the benefit of our shareholders and society as a whole.

                    Our code of ethics
                

Social values also shape our international business activities, and that is why we introduced our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics back in 2011. Effective as of 2023, we have now updated these guidelines so as to continue ensuring responsible corporate governance within the framework of ethically correct conduct in Software AG’s day-to-day business and relationships with all of its stakeholders and their different cultures. The Code of Conduct is mandatory for all Software AG employees.

                    Our Compliance Reporting
                

If you identify a violation of our Compliance Guidelines, we ask that you report it. We offer a state-of-the-art reporting system where you can submit your report completely anonymously if you wish. We are grateful for any information!
