... min read

At ING we aim to put sustainability at the heart of what we do*, defining new ways of doing business where planet and people are just as important as economic growth.

Endorsing the Paris Agreement in 2015 and joining the Net Zero Banking Alliance in 2021 have set the precedent for the strategic direction of ING to steer our portfolio to net zero by 2050. We use our Terra approach to address the most carbon-intensive parts of our overall lending portfolio and steer those to net zero by 2050 or sooner. At client level, we use our sector expertise, international network and climate-action experience to accelerate our clients’ transitions to a low-carbon economy. Our long-standing commitment to sustainability is recognised by independent institutions that assess our sustainability performance annually.

* Society is transitioning to a low-carbon economy. So are our clients, and so is ING. We finance a lot of sustainable activities, but we still finance more that’s not. See how we’re progressing on ing.com/climate.

ING’s Green Bond Programme

ING issued its first Green Bond in November 2015. In alignment with ING’s sustainability strategy, we have established a Green Bond Framework, under which ING Group and any of its subsidiaries can issue financial instruments (such as Senior Bonds, Subordinated Bonds, Covered Bonds, Commercial Papers, Medium-term notes and Deposits) to finance and refinance sustainable assets and projects which contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the sustainability strategy of ING.

ING established its sustainable debt strategy, via the publication of its first Green Bond Framework, back in 2015 and updated it in 2022, aimed at (re)financing green assets, namely green buildings and renewable energy projects.

Since the first publication of the Framework, ING has continued to take important steps to enhance its sustainable debt strategy and sees it as an important tool to support the strong growth of our own Sustainable Finance portfolio.

The framework aligns with the latest International Capital Market Association’s (ICMA) Green Bond Principles (GBP) and has been externally assessed by ISS ESG. In the ISS ESG Second Party Opinion (SPO), the alignment with the Green Bond Principles (GBP), the EU Taxonomy and other additional regulations/standards has been assessed.
