The Principles for Responsible Banking are the first global framework to help incorporate sustainability into all areas of banking. By adhering to these Principles, banks commit to publicly assuming the social, environmental and economic impact of their operations.

This initiative stems from the financial sector’s role as a key driving force in society, which is why it is necessary to formalize the banking sector’s commitment to helping tackle global challenges in order to continue helping the world to move toward greener economies, more responsible patterns of consumption and greater social balance.
