UniCredit advances sustainability and digitalization efforts

Green Forum
In the first part of this year, UniCredit set sustainability targets to further reduce both its direct environmental impact and the exposure of its loan portfolio to controversial sectors.   

„We continued to support businesses in the renewable energy and energy efficiency sectors, and green mortgage loans for individuals remained one of the most requested products. For UniCredit Consumer Financing IFN (UCFin), 2024 marked a year of digitalization and significant simplifications in internal processes and client-oriented activities. Simplified digital workflows were implemented to improve the customer experience”.

Environmental impact is also a key concern for UniCredit Leasing Corporation IFN S.A. In 2024, the company continued to promote GoGreen, the financial solution launched in 2022 that encourages the purchase of 100% electric or hybrid vehicles, offering structural and pricing benefits to all interested parties.

The company expanded its range of solutions supporting a cleaner environment with financial leasing for purchasing photovoltaic panels, a financing solution dedicated to photovoltaic systems for generating electricity with an installed electrical power of up to 400kW.
