Climate change is an issue requiring urgent and extensive action on the part of governments, business and citizens if the risk of serious damage to global prosperity and security is to be avoided.
Climate change poses both risks and opportunities to all parts of the business sector, and at Nedbank we believe in playing our part in increasing energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions into the atmosphere.
Banks, in particular, have a crucial role to play in enabling the transition from a carbon-intensive economy to more efficient low-carbon alternatives.
Nedbank intends taking a leadership role by recognising that climate change is a major issue that affects the financial sector both directly through the operations we run and indirectly through our business investments.
