ENVIRONMENT

Regions recognizes the environmental challenges that face our planet and is committed to reducing our environmental footprint and to enhancing our environmental reporting. To support this commitment, we have published an Environmental Sustainability Policy Statement, set energy and emissions reduction goals and disclosed progress across a range of environmental metrics. Further, we hope to disclose climate-related risks in line with the Financial Stability Board’s Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) disclosure framework within the next year. Beyond our operational footprint, we also recognize the opportunity for our financial products and services to advance a lower-carbon economy and offer several sustainable financing initiatives in place to support these efforts.

The Regions Environmental Sustainability Policy Statement highlights our commitments to:

Reducing emissions and energy use;
Assisting in the transition to a low-carbon economy;
Conserving resources and reducing waste;
Promoting awareness and engagement; and
Reporting and transparency.

To help us implement and effectuate the goals set forth in the policy statement, we established a cross-departmental Environmental Working Group that reports directly to executive leadership. The working group’s objectives are to identify and develop priorities for the Company’s environmental initiatives; promote awareness and engage with associates on sustainability, resource conservation, and recycling; and identify internal and external collaborations to help advance our environmental efforts.
