Barclays announces ambition to be a net zero bank by
2050
Barclays has today published its 2019 Environmental, Social and
Governance report which sets out a new climate policy for the
bank. Barclays will now have an ambition to become a net zero
bank by 2050 and a commitment to align all of its financing
activities with the goals and timelines of the Paris
Agreement.
The alignment of Barclays' portfolio will start with the energy and
power sectors, and will cover all sectors over time. Barclays
will provide the transparent targets required to judge its progress
and will report on them regularly, starting from 2021.
Barclays' shareholders will be asked to endorse this ambition and
commitment through the passing of a resolution that the Board will
propose to shareholders at its forthcoming Annual General Meeting
("AGM"). In developing its approach, Barclays has engaged
extensively with its shareholders, as well as with stakeholders
from across society more broadly. As a result of constructive
engagement with ShareAction, they and many of their co-filers
recommend that shareholders support this resolution from the
Barclays Board.
Over the coming months, the Board will engage with its shareholders
and other stakeholders, including the Investor Forum and
ShareAction, as it further develops its strategy and targets.
Barclays will provide more detail on its strategy and targets by
the end of the year.
Barclays' Notice of AGM will be published on Friday, 3 April 2020
and its 2019 Environmental, Social and Governance report is
available on its website at home.barclays
