Handelsbanken is proud to be a member of the UN initiative Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA)
In order to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement and achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions globally, the financial system must be realigned. Therefore the UN is establishing a Net-Zero Banking Alliance, NZBA, which our CEO, Carina Åkerström, has signed up to on behalf of Handelsbanken.The purpose of the Net-Zero Banking Alliance is to increase the pace of efforts to combat the climate emergency, create common standards for banks to express credible climate commitments, and as far as possible link together existing initiatives such as the Principles for Responsible Banking.
