Giovanna Eichner, shareholder advocate at Green Century Capital Management, said: “It's absurd for Chubb to continue to underwrite activities that are causing climate change and then turn around and pay for the claims caused by these activities.”

So it will come as a shock to the market that Chubb has taken the role of lead reinsurer for a coal-fired power plant in Vietnam.

Insurers saw the climate crisis coming and reassessed what they would insure. Many pulled cover from homes with wildfire risk – including Chubb.

They also looked at the causes of the climate crisis and many pulled cover from coal projects – including Chubb.

HSBC helped raise billions last year for companies expanding the production of coal in deals that seem to violate its coal phase-out policy

The bank was ranked the UK’s second largest funder of fossil fuel companies in a recent report by ‪@ran.org

HSBC breaks pledge to phase out coal for second year running Shareholders voice anger at bank’s $900m deal with controversial steel giant

HSBC was slammed at its AGM when we revealed it appeared to have breached its coal policy by funding coal expanders.

Today we reveal that it appears to have broken its coal policy for the second year running. Investors are rightly furious.

my friend played this, built only renewables and his result was "your city is in DANGER, your MONEY is very low!"

And on that site it said the game "aligns with our work to build future talent pipelines and secure permission to operate at a time of sensitivity around fossil fuels, particularly in light of approval for the Rosebank development".

And the promotion of the game appears to admit that it is an attempt to lobby children, saying it "aligns with our work to secure permission to operate at a time of sensitivity around fossil fuels, particularly in light of approval for the Rosebank development".

The company behind Rosebank has funded a computer game aimed at UK school children as young as 7, promoting the idea that fossil fuels can be part of a future energy mix.

Oil giant funds computer game that promotes fossil fuels to… An online game used in UK schools portrays oil, gas and coal as part of a green transition.

I didn't think I could still be shocked by fossil fuel companies' lobbying tactics but this story, first revealed by Malene Emilie Rustad at the Norwegian publication E24, is amazing.

Why Wall Street banks breaking capital rules is everyone’s problem By neglecting its own reporting rules, Fed risks weakening global banking system

And when they are breaking rules to protect financial stability – that is everyone’s problem

Our story for GlobalCapital www.globalcapital.com/article/2en4...

If it was just one bank doing this, it might be the bank’s problem. But another banker told us that other big US banks were doing the same thing – and that the Fed was tacitly allowing it. That makes it the Fed’s problem.

Elizabeth Warren criticises Federal Reserve over JPMorgan misreporting Wall Street banks are misreporting their trading activity – risking a new financial crash and inflating executive pay

In January, we revealed that the Federal Reserve was allowing major Wall Street banks to break rules designed to prevent another financial crisis.

If you owe the bank $100, it’s your problem. If you owe it $100m, it’s the bank’s problem. The same could be said for bank regulation.

Allianz’s board says it’s time to save the planet. They can start… The financial giant refuses to insure new oil and gas projects, but its asset management firms are still investing in fossil fuels

Read our green finance reporter’s take on the situation 👇

An Allianz board member recently stressed the urgency of stopping climate change before it destroys society

As someone making decisions at one of the world’s largest insurance groups, he can do more than most to achieve that – starting with Allianz’s fossil fuel investments

The Allianz board member says “capitalism must now solve this existential threat”

As someone helping to decide the future of one of the world’s largest insurance groups, he can do more than most to achieve that – starting with Allianz’s energy investments

Allianz’s board says it’s time to save the planet. They can start… The financial giant refuses to insure new oil and gas projects, but its asset management firms are still investing in fossil fuels

An Allianz board member gave a clear-eyed view of the climate crisis

“This is about saving the conditions under which civilization itself can continue to operate”

Allianz has stopped insuring new oil and gas

But it held $26bn of assets in fossil fuel companies in 2024

Trump’s scrapping of corporate transparency will strengthen dictators The White House’s latest move doesn’t just encourage financial crime in the US – it encourages the acceptance of it everywhere else

Trump's government has said it will halt enforcement of a federal law that requires certain companies to declare their owners’ identities

Not only does this encourage fraudsters to do business on US turf – it also sends a message of apathy towards financial crime around the world

Here's a shocking example of JPMorgan's supposedly sustainable investment funds, where only 51% of investments need to promote environmental characteristics – meaning 49% of investments have no such restrictions

Elizabeth Warren criticises Federal Reserve over JPMorgan misreporting Wall Street banks are misreporting their trading activity – risking a new financial crash and inflating executive pay

Investigation finds the Fed is allowing banks to under-report trading activity, lowering their capital requirements.

Potentially violates international rules, raises questions about fairness and transparency, and exposes the public to risks.

Agree and sorry it's hard to go into the necessary detail in a news story! The rules state there can be no netting of long and short positions in the same CUSIP for trading and AFS securities. p31 of this document www.federalreserve.gov/apps/reporti...

Incredibly concerning report of megabanks' manipulation to increase profits and executive bonuses. But, also not surprising.
