Helping towards long-term sustainability goals
The aim of the European Union's "Fit for 55" plan is to increase carbon removal by up to 55% by 2030.
As the European economy's financiers, banks play an important role in proposing real solutions to mitigate climate change.
Agriculture is one of the critical sectors in the fight against climate change.
"Obtaining a sustainable loan also assures our partners that we use environmentally friendly practices in our production. It is nice to note that this approach is becoming more and more valued, and hopefully following these practices will bring other additional benefits in the future."
