INTESA SANPAOLO IS THE ONLY ITALIAN BANK TO APPEAR ON THE CDP CLIMATE A LIST 2019

 

Milan, 20 January 2020 Intesa Sanpaolo was the only Italian bank to be included in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) “Climate A List 2019”, a list of 179 companies - selected from more than 8,000 analysed - that are world leaders in terms of environmental performance and mitigating the effects of climate change. CDP is a non-profit organisation that provides a global system for measuring and disseminating information on environmental impact.

For the fourth consecutive year, Intesa Sanpaolo has been recognised for its commitment to fighting climate change and for its strategy to protect the environment, particularly through its support for a low-carbon economy.

Intesa Sanpaolo’s Managing Director and CEO, Carlo Messina, commented: “Today all major institutional investors are paying very close attention to these issues as they look to the future. International finance is increasingly focusing its investments towards sustainable projects. Europe is at the cutting edge in this regard and is introducing new approaches thanks to the green deal. We need to stimulate investment in Italy, especially sustainable investment. At Intesa Sanpaolo, we are providing €50 billion to support these types of investments.”

Intesa Sanpaolo is one of the most sustainable banks in the world and is included in all the leading sustainability indices such as the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (World and Europe), which is among the most important global and European stock exchange sustainability indices.
