Points to remember in 2019...

In 2019, BNP Paribas has speeded up its commitment to combating climate change and was recognised in the prestigious Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations ranking. It was an unprecedented performance: the Group was first in the ranking of French and European banks, and third globally.

We support all our customers in energy transition for a low-carbon economy, with the objective of investing in renewable energies more EUR 15 billions by 2020.
