Sustainable Finance

Join leading financial institutions and use your financial products to reduce your climate impact while supporting the transition to a low-carbon and nature-positive economy.

Climate change poses many challenges to financial institutions

These challenges can include GHG data collection and management, regulatory compliance, and climate risk management, to identifying investment opportunities that positively contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation. Financial institutions can address these by integrating sustainable finance criteria.

Sustainable finance refers to the process of taking environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations into account when making investment decisions and managing risks in the financial sector, leading to more long-term investments in sustainable economic activities and projects.

Set targets

Define and set ambitious targets aligned with industry best practice; define a net zero implementation roadmap that is tailored to your objectives and strategies; operationalise climate action towards net zero.

Reduce footprint

Reallocate strategies away from carbon-intensive activities, including fossil fuels & deforestation-related activities in alignment with sector pathways.
