A changing climate presents both risks and opportunities for Georgia, its people, and its companies – and, thus, for the financial services sector. We recognise our role in addressing this global challenge. Climate change may affect us directly and indirectly, including through the impact on our clients. Bank of Georgia’s Climate Action Strategy, describes how we intend to contribute to Georgia’s climate-related goals. Assessing and discussing risks with clients, providing green finance, managing GHG emissions and improving our climate-related capacities are some of the key aspects of our climate strategy. To read more about our initiatives, metrics and KPI’s as well as targets, see pages 93 – 118 in our Annual Report 2023.
