Environment

We want to play a leading role in the sustainable transition. We show our commitment by supporting the energy transformation of companies and aiming to eliminate our emissions.

Contributing to the sustainable transition means, for us, reducing our direct environmental impact and supporting SMEs in their path of innovation and growth.

We were also among the first Italian banks to join the Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), setting the goal of eliminating emissions on loans by 2050, and with Change PMI we want to assist client companies in their energy transition with a subsidised financing plan and an ESG assessment and scoring service.
