THE 2020 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT provides an overview of the European Investment Bank Group’s operations and impact in supporting sustainable and inclusive growth in Europe and across the globe.

This report was prepared in accordance with the “comprehensive” option of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards and should be read in conjunction with the “Sustainability Reporting Disclosures 2020,” a separate document available on the European Investment Bank (EIB) website. The disclosures address relevant topics in a standardised and comparable form. They are meant for professional users of sustainability reports, such as financial and environmental, social and governance (ESG) analysts, civil society organisations, members of the academic community and any other interested parties.

The choice of topics follows a materiality assessment conducted in 2018 involving internal and external stakeholders to identify the topics of material importance to be included in the EIB Group’s reporting.

To accompany the Sustainability Report and GRI standards, we also published in 2020 a set of disclosures in accordance with the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) framework, as well as the Group’s first report in line with the recommendations of the Task force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

The EIB Group commissioned its external auditor, KPMG, to provide limited assurance on selected statements and figures in the Sustainability Report. These statements are marked with and highlighted in italics.
