FinecoBank SpA
Last Rated in Feb 2025
Your bank falls short in climate responsibility.
Fineco has not disclosed sufficient information for us to rule out lending to the fossil fuel industry.
The bank does not have a policy stating it will not finance fossil fuel companies and projects.
The bank has not measured emissions enabled by its lending and has not set science-based targets.
It does offer a green loan, to finance, at a specific rate, the purchase and installation of renewable energy technologies.
If they engage in energy financing, they are likely to lend far more to fossil fuels than renewable sources. They may have limited or no effective policies to improve their climate impact and may lack meaningful targets for reducing the emissions they are responsible for.
While they might show some engagement in sustainable practices or offer certain green lending products, these efforts are insufficiently developed or prominently displayed to make a significant impact.
Your bank may be ignoring the Paris Agreement.
The Paris Agreement set the goal to stay under 1.5°C of warming for very good reasons. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, an increase of just a couple of degrees more could lead to "substantial species extinction, large risks to global and regional food security", and an inability to work outside — or even live — in some areas of the world. Our world will become unrecognizable as ocean dead zones, floods, and extreme weather fuel social and economic disruption.
