BNP Paribas is Investment Bank of 2020 in four categories: The Banker

Sustainable FIG financing, sustainability-linked loans, social bonds and IPOs: four categories, four wins for BNP Paribas in The Banker's Investment Banking Awards 2020.

The Banker magazine has named BNP Paribas winner in four global categories in its annual Investment Banking Awards:

  • Investment Bank of the Year for Sustainable FIG financing
  • Investment Bank of the Year for Sustainability-linked Loans
  • Investment Bank of the Year for Social Bonds
  • Investment Bank of the Year for IPOs

This year, The Banker, a Financial Times publication, has added new sustainable finance  categories to its annual awards in recognition of the growing importance of environmental, social and governance- (ESG-) driven investment. Its importance for policymakers, regulators and the banking sector alike is growing rapidly, in response both to the perils of global warming and to the economic challenges caused by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
