OUR SUSTAINABILiTY CREDENTIALS
For us, sustainability is about providing effective services and products to our clients, helping them make the most of their wealth. We are an accredited B Corp, which means we meet high standards in our environmental, social and governance practices.
LENDING
We’ve set ourselves ambitious targets to reduce the climate impact of our lending and ensure it contributes towards achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement. This includes working towards our ambition that 50% of our mortgage portfolio has an EPC rating of C or above by 2030.
Our approach to lending aims to help our clients reduce their own impact on the environment and reward their positive action. For example, our Green Mortgage Products could provide a fee refund for clients purchasing an energy efficient property or upgrading their current home to make it more energy efficient.
We recognise there’s a need for independent and expert advice to help our clients navigate what is a complicated and changing topic. We’re therefore forming partnerships with relevant experts to provide our clients with advice and guidance on how they might help tackle climate change.
