Civil society organizations around the world are becoming more aware of the role Chinese banks play in financing companies and projects that can cause human and environmental harm.

The report also provides some entry points for organizations seeking engagement with the Chinese commercial banks. To this end, we provide an overview of recent and future developments in China’s policies on climate and energy, as well as the evolving sustainability requirements for the commercial banking sector.
