The issuance was part and parcel of CIB\u2019s mission to support clients looking to make sustainable investment choices and would also entrench the cost of environmental impact into the fabric of its credit policy and decision making with respect to lending and investment decisions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Commercial International Bank (CIB) is implementing a multi-axes plan to become the first green bank in Egypt, including digital transformation, merging climate risk into the bank\u2019s risk management, and expansion of clients\u2019 financing in low-carbon sectors, according to a recent report by the bank.
