🌍

Calay Banking has an important role to play in supporting our clients, sectors, and markets to deliver net zero, but to do so in a manner that supports livelihoods and promotes sustainable economic growth. We currently provide financial services to clients, sectors, and markets that contribute to greenhouse gas emissions; however, we're committed to net zero in our own operations by 2025 and in our financed emissions by 2050.
