Sustainable Banking Awards

We often receive questions from TSF participants about sustainability contests and transparency prizes. The information below might be interesting for you:

The FT Sustainable Banking Awards were created by the Financial Times in association with the International Finance Corporation, the private sector arm of the World Bank, to acknowledge the progress that banks have made in integrating social, environmental and corporate governance objectives into their operations while maximising shareholder value. The goal is to highlight initiatives that work and to reward progress on the journey towards sustainability. It is a best-in-class measure, not an absolute measure. We hope the awards – now in their second year -- will act as a catalyst for further innovation in sustainable banking, helping to encourage best practice and transparency in the way banks approach sustainability and stimulate debate on the role banks can or should play in the area of sustainability.
