DBS Bank (Hong Kong)
DBS is a leading financial services group in Asia with a presence in 18 markets. Headquartered and listed in Singapore, DBS is in the three key Asian axes of growth: Greater China, Southeast Asia and South Asia. The bank’s “AA-” and “Aa1” credit ratings are among the highest in the world. As a purpose-driven bank, we have been thoughtful around our own sustainability agenda. To pull all these into place, we architected our broader sustainability agenda around three pillars – responsible banking, responsible business practices and impact beyond banking.
To encourage more companies from key industries to transition to a low-carbon economy, we are the first commercial bank to publish a Sustainable and Transition Finance Framework and Taxonomy, which serves as a reference to guide clients to adapt and build resilience in the face of climate change, resource scarcity and address critical global issues such as income inequality.
Our sustainability goals for 2022:
