JP Morgan hit the headlines this week following the announcement of a new European Super League (ESL), which the investment bank had promised to inject £4.8bn into. The announcement was poorly received by fans and politicians alike, and all six English clubs subsequently pulled out.
Journalist Niels Pratley embraced the opportunity to juxtapose the banks support for the ESL and its supposed sense of community, outlined in the chief executive’s recent letter to shareholders: “It is hard to spot any sense of localism or community in the backing of an exercise in short-term greed that is grubby even by modern football’s standards” Pratley argued.
Citi, once again in second place, also made the news this week as it joined a community of 43 banks in the new Net Zero Banking Alliance. The alliance also becomes part of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), chaired by Mark Carney, a group of over 160 firms responsible for assets more than $70trn.
The NZBA is convened by the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative and co-launched by the Prince of Wales’ Sustainable Markets Initiative Financial Services Taskforce.
