While the COP 27 will take place in November 2022, in Egypt, the climate emergency is becoming increasingly urgent. The findings in the 6th report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) are alarming: at the current rate of development, global warming could reach 2.7°C by the end of the century, above the target set by the Paris Agreement, well below 2°C.
In addition to designing responsible financial products and services, we support a variety of initiatives and innovations to address the major challenges of climate change with a clear objective: to finance a carbon-neutral economy by 2050.
