Last Rated in May 2025
Your bank is climate responsible.
DZ Bank still finances fossil fuel companies, although it provides more renewable energy financing than fossil fuel financing. It appears to be transitioning away from fossil fuels, ramping up its support for renewables.
DZ Bank has measured greenhouse gas emissions enabled by its lending. Additionally, DZ Bank has set targets to reduce these emissions, by sector. We'd like to see DZ Bank tighten its exclusion policy, which at the moment still enables the bank to finance expansion activities.
Our mission is to encourage as many people as possible to take a stand - to refuse to let their money fuel environmental destruction any longer. Considering who you bank with, we think you probably agree. This is your chance to spread the word with us.
