Major U.S. Banks Withdraw from Climate Initiative

Major U.S. Banks Withdraw from Climate Initiative

All major U.S. banks have withdrawn from the Net-Zero Banking Alliance, a climate initiative established in 2021 under the leadership of Mark Carney. This significant move raises questions about the future of the initiative, which aimed to promote sustainable finance and help banks align their lending and investment portfolios with net-zero emissions targets. The departure of these banks marks a notable shift in the landscape of climate finance, as they were once seen as key players in the global effort to combat climate change.

Despite the exit of U.S. institutions, Canadian and European banks continue to participate in the alliance, indicating a potential divide in commitment to climate goals among financial institutions. The withdrawal has sparked concerns among environmental advocates, who fear that it may hinder progress towards achieving climate targets. As the world grapples with the pressing challenges of climate change, the fate of the Net-Zero Banking Alliance remains uncertain, highlighting the complexities of aligning financial interests with environmental responsibility.
