Sandy Spring Bank

Sandy Spring does not appear to have exposure to the fossil fuel sector, although we cannot guarantee that as the bank does not have an explicit policy stating that it will not lend to companies in the fossil fuel industry.

We would encourage the bank to be more transparent about its practices and policies in this area, and to complete the CDP climate questionnaire which its investors have been asking for.

We would like to see the bank measure the greenhouse gas emissions enabled by its lending, set science-based targets over those emissions, and increase its level of lending to renewable energy companies and projects.
