(27 July 2020 – Europe) VP bank have made a concerted push towards sustainable investments by offering clients sustainable solutions.
The solutions aim to integrate Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors into investment banking decisions. Importantly, the simplicity of the bank’s ownership structure has allowed room for the bank to place sustainability at the top of its agenda. This will also mean that the bank will be able to offer sustainable finance to corporates and investors.
“One of the misconceptions surrounding sustainable investing is the view that there is a trade-off between returns and doing the right thing” commented VP Bank Group Chief Investment Officer, Felix Brill.
