Sustainable Deposit

Use a sustainable format to invest your short-term cash resources (1 to 12 months).

Our Sustainable Deposit was inaugurated in 2022 as a new opportunity for customers to use a sustainable format for short-term investing.

For this, we have established the RBI “Sustainable Deposits Framework”, which was positively opinioned and verified through the Second Party Opinion by the Carbon Trust Assurance Limited agency.

Use of proceeds
RBI will use the proceeds from Sustainable Deposits to finance sustainability-linked finance products (SLFPs) with a positive ESG impact within RBI core markets.

SLFPs are finance products which incentivize customers to achieve ambitious sustainability targets and thus make a positive contribution to their sustainable transformation.

As part of our transparency promise, an annual report on the use of the proceeds – the Allocation and Impact Report – is published.
