About Us

The Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV) is a membership organization, made up of fourteen of the world's leading sustainable banks, from Asia and Latin America to the US and Europe. They are bound by a shared commitment to find global solutions to international problems - and to promote a positive, viable alternative to the current financial system. These organizations believe that we must improve the quality of life for everyone on the planet, recognizing that we are economically interdependent and responsible to current and future generations.

The network's members have to meet three criteria:

• they are independent and licensed banks with a focus on retail customers
• with a minimum balance sheet of $50 million;
• and, most significantly, they should be committed to social banking and the triple bottom line of people, planet and profit.

The Global Alliance for Banking on Values works with key partners to further its work. In particular, with FMO, the development bank of the Netherlands, the Rockefeller Foundation, who co-fund its financial capital and impact metrics action track, and SBI who deliver services and solutions that extend access to capital to un(der)served individuals, households and entrepreneurs globally.
