The Bank will use the proceeds from these deposits to finance a wide array of sectors falling under the SDG category including, energy efficiency, renewable energy, green transport, sustainable food, agriculture, forestry, waste management and greenhouse gas reduction.
Roopa Satish, Head – CSR and Sustainable Banking, IndusInd Bank said, green deposits provide the Bank’s customers with an opportunity to contribute to building a cleaner and better society.
“In all ways, it is similar to a regular bank deposit, but in addition, depositors will be issued a ‘Green’ certificate as well as an ‘Assurance’ certificate confirming the end-use of deposit proceeds at the end of the financial year,” she added.
