Why it matters

Banca Etica was founded in Italy in 1999 as the country’s first fully ethical bank. Built on values of transparency, sustainability, and respect for human dignity, it finances social cooperatives, environmental projects, fair trade, refugee inclusion, and more.

It does not invest in arms, environmental harm, or exploitative practices, and lets you decide where your money goes. Its banking model fosters social justice: it reinvests profits into the community, promotes democratic governance, and directs at least 20% of its loan portfolio to nonprofits and social enterprises.

With €2.5 billion in responsible savings and over €1.2 billion in loans to initiatives with social and ecological impact, Banca Etica demonstrates that banking can be a tool for justice.
