Banque BEMO Certified "Carbon Neutral" organization for the year 2017

December 2017 - Banque BEMO was certified as a “Carbon Neutral” organization for the year 2017. The Carbon Neutral certification was obtained following the completion of the “Carbon Footprint Management” project. This project falls within the scope of the Corporate Social Responsibility framework, more specifically the Sustainable Development Goal 13 “Climate Action” that has been adopted by Banque BEMO. The project consisted of conducting an assessment and calculation of the greenhouse gas emissions from day-to-day activities in the Bank’s premises and offsetting these carbon emissions through an environmental project – the reforestation and restoration of two hectares of Jabal Moussa’s forest, thanks to the efforts and engagement of BEMO’s staff members.

This initiative is a key step on the path to a sustainable positive impact on climate change and further fosters Banque BEMO as a responsible business.
