Sustainability is one of the biggest challenges for society. Sustainability is an integral part of ING’s strategy, with the aim to be a banking leader in building a sustainable future for our company, our customers, society and the environment. Our sustainability approach focuses on climate action and how we can help to halt and reverse nature loss, while monitoring human rights and working to advance financial health and inclusion. For more on our approach, please see ing.com/sustainability
By focusing on climate action, ING wants to play a leading role in accelerating the global transition to a low-carbon economy. As a bank, we do this through financing: working with clients on their transitions to net zero while financing the technologies and solutions needed for a sustainable future. And because the global transition needs to include everyone, we’re also finding new ways to enable people to stay a step ahead on climate change.
Society is transitioning to a low-carbon economy. So are our clients, and so is ING. We finance a lot of sustainable activities, but we still finance more that’s not. See how we’re progressing on ing.com/climate.
