Synchrony Bank

Last Rated in Feb 2026

Your bank has room for improvement on climate responsibility.

Synchrony does not appear to provide loans to large customers. Most of its commercial lending is credit card lending to small and medium-sized companies. The risk of it financing the fossil fuel industry is therefore low.

Move Your Money

We'd like to see the bank measure and disclose emissions associated with its lending activities ("Financed emissions"), set science-based emission reduction targets, put in place a policy of not lending to fossil fuel companies and start offering "green" products.

We were founded on the belief that banks have had an easy time from their customers for too long. 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. Join us in building this movement by pressuring your bank to do better, or by taking your money to somewhere that cares about our planet's future.
