Company: Bank of America

At Bank of America, we ask this question every day of all those we serve. It is at the core of how we live our values, deliver our purpose and achieve responsible growth. By asking this question, we continue to learn what matters most to our clients, our employees and our shareholders. It helps us start a conversation centered on our commitment to use our capabilities to help those we serve be successful. Because we recognize that we can only be successful when the individuals, companies, communities and employees we serve are able to reach their vision of success.

We are delivering on our purpose to help make financial lives better through our focus on responsible growth. By driving responsible growth, we deliver returns to our clients and shareholders and help address society’s biggest challenges.
