Financial education

Financial education is one of the long-term priorities of OVB Slovakia's social responsibility. We have been systematically engaged in financial education in the company since 1996.

Financial education activities in schools are covered by the non-profit organization OVB Charity & CSR Slovakia through specially trained and certified lecturers.

In 2025, our project supporting financial education in primary and secondary schools involved:

Educational project My Family

A financial education project primarily intended for second-year primary school students in Slovakia. Application software provided for schools and primary school students.

Financial Wellbeing

The board game Financial Wellbeing aimed at improving the financial education of players. Not only for young people.

The board game can be played by 4 to 6 people aged 15 and older, accompanied by a certified instructor. In schools throughout Slovakia, the game can be organized for one or more classes at the same time, depending on the teachers’ requirements.

A helping hand to those in need

OVB as a company, as well as our employees and financial agents, have traditionally been involved in various charity events. In 2025, they donated blood, participated in the Runs for Health, the Run of the Undefeated, and also contributed with their donations and actions to improving the situation in centres for children and families.

Blood donation, which is still in acute shortage in Slovakia, has already become a regular part of life for dozens of our employees and agents. The number of donors is increasing every year and we are proud that in this way we can help people, contribute to filling the blood bank of Slovakia, and even save lives.

We care about the environment

A responsible approach to the environment is part of the daily routine of OVB. In particular, the digitization of processes and the electroniization of documents play an important role, thus helping to reduce paper consumption and making internal processes more efficient.

We are gradually replacing paper contracts and communication with clients, even within the company, with electronic documents and modern applications.

Documents in numbers

Volunteering at Bratislava Zoo

Our employees participated in a volunteer activity at Bratislava Zoo in 2024, helping to renovate the ring-tailed lemur enclosure. We followed up this initiative in 2025 with the symbolic adoption of a pair of lemurs.

Corporate culture as a bearer of shared values

Corporate culture is an informal but extremely strong system of rules that influences the working atmosphere, productivity, and employee satisfaction. OVB builds on a tradition that supports cooperation, growth and mature leadership.

In 2025, we paid great attention to the systematic development of corporate culture. We launched a strategic project aimed at supporting open communication, cooperation, and the development of leaders across the entire company.

Map of the desired corporate culture

The result of our joint work was a map of the desired corporate culture of OVB Slovakia, which names the values ​​and behaviour on which we want to build the future of our company.

Its pillars include cooperation, fairness, inspiration, action, and pride.

"Every company, every team has a corporate culture, regardless of whether they realize it or not. The only difference is whether we let the corporate culture live its own life, or whether we want to direct it in some way so that it helps us achieve our goals."
