Celebrating Five Years of the UN Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB) The UN Principles for #ResponsibleBanking offer a comprehensive approach to addressing sustainability risks and managing impacts in a bank’s portfolio. They set out actions for the global banking industry, guiding institutions towards becoming a responsible bank, and positioning them as leaders in the transformation our economies need for people and planet. This strategic sustainability framework provides clear, adaptable, and credible solutions tailored to banks at any stage of their sustainability journey regardless of size or location - in this way it is different to reporting frameworks. Over 340 banks - representing more than 50% of global banking assets - have chosen to implement the Principles, embedding sustainability at the core of their business and operations. As we begin to celebrate #5yearsofthePRB, we will continue highlighting how signatory banks are putting the Principles into practice and sharing the resources UNEP FI provides to help with their implementation.

How Temenos helps financial institutions integrate ESG standards and technology Read the full article: https://bit.ly/3ZcH4CQ Kalliopi Chioti, Chief ESG Officer, and Frankie Wai, Business Solutions Director at Temenos, discussed the pivotal role of technology in helping banks meet ESG challenges, streamline reporting, and prevent greenwashing. Through innovative solutions, they outline Temenos’ mission to integrate standards and enable banks to achieve genuine progress in sustainable finance. As environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles become central to the financial industry, banks are striving to align with a growing list of global and regional regulations. Spearheading initiatives like the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS)’s gprnt, Green Finance Action Plan and the Bank for International Settlements – BIS’ Project Gaia, regulators are working to integrate ESG standards into financial practices. Yet, the journey towards standardised reporting, authentic sustainability measures, and greenwashing prevention remains fraught with challenges.
