ING Groep NV is facing a lawsuit in the Netherlands from Milieudefensie, which claims the bank has not taken sufficient action to reduce its emissions. The nonprofit demands that ING halve its total emissions by 2030 and stop financing new oil and gas projects, highlighting the bank's significant climate impact. Despite acknowledging the lawsuit, ING asserts its commitment to climate action and has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, including ceasing dedicated financing for new fossil fuel projects.
Attorney General Jason Miyares, alongside 17 other state attorneys general, announced the conclusion of an investigation into Wells Fargo after the bank decided to abandon its Environmental Social Governance (ESG) policies. Miyares emphasized that sound economics should take precedence over social trends, particularly for retirees and investors. While Wells Fargo has publicly ended its ESG commitments, the investigation into five other banks regarding similar policies will continue.
