The Sustainable Development Goals – SDG reporting by banks

The analysis of the current state of SDG reporting by banks shows:

- Most of the analysed banks are now involved with the topic of SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals)

- However, so far less than one third of the analysed banks have created actual transparency across their portfolio.

- Fewer than 10% of the analysed banks are already applying SDG-related KPIs (key performance indicators) and reorienting part of their business activity towards sustainable financing
