We have undertaken to establish guidelines for our funding in the most sensitive sectors, in view of their human and environmental impacts.
Details regarding Groupe BPCE’s banking activities

As early as 2015, Natixis CIB undertook to discontinue its financing of coal-fired power plants and thermal coal mines worldwide. This policy has been progressively reinforced and, in 2021, Groupe BPCE extended its policy to all its banking activities and committed to a strategy aimed at gradually reducing the exposure of its banking activities to thermal coal to zero by 2030 (for the EU and OECD countries) and by 2040 (for the rest of the world).
