COP30 kicked off in Brazil: new emissions pledges offer hope but fall short. Vulnerable communities need more support. As the world pursues deeper cuts, a just and fair transition must remain at the centre.

As the world moves further into the realities of the climate crisis, credible transition plans from EU banks are essential. So why are so many still falling short? And what’s the @ECB going to do about it?

Just 41% of major EU banks have published #CSRD transition plans, per @forfinancewatch. Of the 64 banks analysed, many disclosures are partial or incomplete writes @MoriahCosta https://t.co/ioVKN4Fwf9 #ClimateDisclosure

Take a look at our current pensions campaign and take action for greener, fairer pensions here:

Great new piece from @NeilForPoole - a leading MP calling for greater ambition from the gov's landmark pension reforms! He rightly highlights 3 priorities for the current Pension Schemes Bill too: worker representation, fossil fuel phase out and funding for the green transition.

The new Financial Inclusion Strategy doesn't meet the moment economically or politically. There's plenty of good in it, but millions will still be prey to high cost credit & loan sharks, & it doesn't deliver the bold action the public wants. My analysis: https://t.co/LhyCCdEa7x

Great to have MPs like Simon Opher supporting @TheFinanceLab's amendment to the Pensions Schemes Bill. Help us build support for greener, fairer pensions. Write to your MP today: https://t.co/vFORMCNZe6

Response from @TheFinanceLab to the government's new Financial Inclusion Strategy 👇 #FairBankingForAll https://t.co/mC4kkyFJhD

Today marks the launch of the Financial Inclusion Strategy. The Strategy must be seen as a stepping stone that sets the direction of travel to ending the poverty premium and financial exclusion. Read our full statement here: https://t.co/r0JiGUfmFz

📢 The government’s Financial Inclusion Strategy is out. Some practical steps on #AffordableCredit are welcome, but it still falls short of the scale of change needed. A #FairBankingAct would provide the clear, measurable framework this issue deserves. #FairBankingForAll

"A commitment to a Fair Banking Act...would have shown that the government is serious about driving change at scale, rather than just hoping that banks will step up”. Read our response to the government's Financial Inclusion Strategy. #FairBankingForAll https://t.co/tAb5UpR9z6

Whether you're retiring next year or after 2050, we all need stable pensions on a stable planet. This letter to pension funds is clear: stop gambling with everyone's futures. #FutureProofPensions This is about ALL of us 🤝 https://t.co/KoPKwVYXGR

In December 2024, the Government committed to a Financial Inclusion Strategy. Since then, officials, regulators, and consumer groups have worked in subcommittees developing the Strategy. With the Strategy’s launch imminent the question remains: will it be bold enough?

"What’s missing is not more fintechs, but more purpose-driven or responsible lenders, like #CreditUnions and community-based banks, which exist in most other countries.” Spot on from @JesseLGriffiths, CEO at @TheFinanceLab. #FairBankingForAll https://t.co/OTBrPqAlVB

"As someone who has spent years campaigning for climate action, I know how vital it is that our financial systems support a liveable future." Brilliant to see @roz_savage MP supporting @TheFinanceLab's Pension Schemes Bill amendment to enable fossil fuel investment phase-out 💚

Whose side are they on? Just when we are meant to be reducing our reliance on fossil fuels, the government has been increasing their interaction with the sector. https://t.co/Ck0dEYL0zb

In today’s #WestminsterHall debate, Martin Rhodes MP raised “the pervasiveness of loan sharks & lack of access to #AffordableCredit”. We say a #FairBankingAct could be key to a Financial Inclusion Strategy that “builds an inclusive financial system for all”. #FairBankingForAll

Coal use continues to rise because banks and investors continue to finance it. https://t.co/FbDroEMm4z

1/2 Collective pensions for millions of UK workers felt closer to a reality today. ‘CDC’ promises an “income for life”, higher average incomes (25-65%!), and greater investment for the UK - all particularly important for people on low incomes and facing hardship in retirement.

"There are so many areas where the strategy could be bold. To us, one of the most crucial is credit. Real boldness would look like a #FairBankingAct... to ensure that banks serve all sectors of the community." 👏👏👏 @FairByDesign #FairBankingForAll
