Sustainable finance
Barclays has committed to facilitating:
■ £150bn of social and environmental financing from 2018 to 2025 to support the SDGs
■ £100bn of green financing* from 2018 to 2030 to support the transition to a low-carbon economy.
In addition, our Sustainable Impact Capital Programme, led by the Barclays Principal Investments team in Treasury has a mandate to
invest up to £175m of equity capital in sustainability-focused start-ups by 2025, helping to accelerate our clients' transition towards
a low-carbon economy. £54m of the £175m overall target has been deployed since 2020.
From the acceleration of innovative carbon-efficient technologies and supply chains to supporting the development of viable
markets for carbon capture and sequestration, the Programme is seeking out and supporting clear, scalable propositions that deliver
both environmental benefits and economic returns. Through the Programme, we aim to fill growth stage funding gaps to help
accelerate and scale catalytic and strategic solutions to environmental challenges.
*Green financing is comprised of labelled, 'use of proceeds' and business mix financing in environmental categories and sustainability-linked financing
that incorporates environmental performance targets. For more information, see the Barclays Sustainable Finance Framework.
