Sustainable finance is a central pillar of CIMB’s 2030 sustainability roadmap, and is an integral component of its Forward30 strategy. Since introducing its sustainable finance roadmap in 2021, CIMB has progressively raised its ambitions, tripling its sustainable finance target from RM30 billion to RM100 billion for the 2021–2024 period, and now significantly expanding its commitment through 2030.
Novan Amirudin, Group Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of CIMB Group, said, “Our ambitious sustainable finance target, which is three times higher than our previous target, is anchored on our purpose of advancing customers and society. We have a critical role to play in supporting our clients in their sustainability journeys, and enabling them to thrive in a low-carbon economy. As one of ASEAN’s leading banks, CIMB is committed to enabling realworld impact by directing capital towards responsible businesses, as well as activities that reduce emissions, protect ecosystems and generate meaningful social outcomes, to ensure no one is left behind.”
