HSBC announced that it mobilized more than $102 billion in sustainable finance and investment in 2025, reaching a new annual record for the bank, and the first time that it has exceeded $100 billion.<\/p>\n
The results, reported within HSBC\u2019s recently released 2025 annual report, brings the bank\u2019s cumulative total facilitation of sustainable finance and investment to $495.6 billion since the beginning of 2020, putting HSBC on track towards its target to facilitate between $750 billion and $1 trillion in sustainable finance and investment by 2030.<\/p>\n
In a post announcing the results, Julian Wentzel, Group Chief Sustainability Officer at HSBC, said:<\/p>\n
\u201cThis momentum reflects our commitment to supporting our customers\u2019 transition by connecting them to opportunities and playing our role empowering the growth of transition ecosystems and clean energy at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n
While hitting a new record level, HSBC\u2019s 2025 results indicated that growth in sustainable finance and investment activity slowed during the year, increasing by 3% from $99.2 billion in 2024, after growing by more than 18% during the prior year.<\/p>\n
HSBC noted that underwriting activity for green, social, sustainability, and sustainability-linked bonds declined during the year, citing challenging market conditions, particularly in the second half of the year. The decline in bond underwriting, however, was offset by 12% growth in the year in on-balance sheet sustainable lending transactions, as well as by 15% in ESG and sustainable investing flows.<\/p>\n
By type, activity focused on green use of proceeds accounted for the greatest share of facilitated\u00a0 <\/span>sustainable finance and investment activity in 2025, at 41%, followed by sustainability-linked financing at 22%, while social use of proceeds represented 6.8%.<\/p>\n HSBC also reported that its investment management unit, HSBC Asset Management, recorded significant growth in ESG and sustainable investing solutions assets in 2025, increasing by 18.5% during the year to reach $213 billion.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" HSBC announced that it mobilized more than $102 billion in sustainable finance and investment in 2025, reaching a new annual record for the bank, and the first time that it has exceeded $100 billion.
