The money in your bank never sleeps. Banks finance the economy by granting loans and other financial services to individuals, businesses of varying sizes and local authorities with the money you entrust to them. It is their power to create money, which is made possible by to two things: their banking license which authorises them to provide credit and their fundraising from different audiences, including yourself.

Limiting global warming to 1.5°C and making the ecological transition requires massive investments towards new sustainable models, but also and above all the exit from fossil fuels. Banks are essential to this transition and have the choice between financing the expansion of the gas and oil sectors or financing a sustainable and liveable future for all.

When you put money into your deposit account, it doesn’t just sit there. Banks can use your money to fund projects like drilling in the Arctic, laying down oil pipelines, and building refineries that pollute our communities.

None of the institutions listed here came to us with a marketing plan. We found, vetted, and asked everyone listed on the site to participate. All those on our site have committed to being fossil fuel free. We want to connect institutions that do the right thing to people who want to do right by their communities and our planet. Our end goal: building a new banking system that respects and represents people and the planet.

No. We do not accept any form of compensation or payment from any financial institution.

Changing banks is a right and banks cannot refuse your departure unless your account has irregularities such as an overdraft. In this case, it is necessary to regularise the situation in order to transfer your account. Once regularised, the banks are obliged to inform you about the procedure to follow and your destination bank is obliged to offer you a banking mobility assistance service. Please note, holding credits can complicate changing banks since your new bank will have to repurchase them. Don’t panic, if it is too complicated for you to repay your credit, you can act now through your savings accounts and you can also open a new bank account.
