Mission

Mission

The Sustainable Banking Coalition is an informal grouping of fossil fuel-free, environmental and social sustainability-focused banks, neobanks and financial institutions from across the European Union.They provide climate-friendly banking services to consumers and the real economy and convene to address market-driven and policy dysfunctions that hamper the development of a just, equitable, diverse, inclusive and climate- and environment-friendly banking system.Their main aim is to drive capital and influence to ESG impact-focused financial institutions by leveraging their role as sustainable frontrunners in the EU financial sector and subsequently influencing key EU sustainable finance and banking policies.They do not engage with the following industries: tobacco, armament, gambling, fossil fuels, deforestation, pesticides and intensive animal farming.​The Sustainable Banking Coalition will seek collaboration, when or if needed, with the Federation of Ethical and Alternative Bankers and Financiers in Europe (FEBEA), the Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV) and B Lab Europe.​
