Over the past years, a number of the world's largest banks have made commitments to contributing towards a more sustainable future. Each bank that made such commitments did so in varying degrees. On a broad scale, these commitments are focused in three main areas covering environment, society and governance, and mainly follow the guidelines set out in the 2015 Paris Agreement.
A part of the commitments made by Standard Chartered bank plc was the the ambition to reduce the water use by 72 percent from a baseline set in 2008. As of 2019, the bank reached its target, reportedly meeting 93.1 percent of their total sustainable goals.
