ING Sustainable Lending presents vision

ING shared its vision on climate change and energy efficiency during the Singapore International Energy Week (SIEW).

The SIEW is an annual, week-long platform for energy professionals, policymakers and commentators to discuss and share best practices and solutions within the global energy space.

Embedding sustainable lending

This year, the SIEW had a significant focus on climate change, cleantech and energy efficiency. Triggered by ING’s decision to embed sustainable lending into the commercial business and a recent report on Energy Efficiency published by the ING Economics department, ING was invited to share its vision.

Support transition towards a sustainable economy

Leonie Schreve, head of Sustainable Lending at ING, presented at the Holland Pavilion, sponsored by FME, Agentschap NL and a variety of Dutch cleantech companies. She highlighted how ING is actively encouraging lending to leading sustainable clients and transactions within the subsectors of water, energy and waste. By adopting this approach ING aims to support the transition towards a sustainable economy.
