Growing financial sector science-based targets
14th Feb 2022
Nate Aden, the SBTi's financial sector lead, explains how we're supporting the sector to set science-based targets, and what is coming in 2022.
The financial sector plays an essential role in the transition to a low-carbon economy. That's why the SBTi began developing new methods and criteria to help financial institutions to set science-based targets on their investment and lending portfolios in 2018.
Nate Aden explains what the SBTi is doing to enable at least 150 financial institutions to have their science-based targets approved in 2022.
