Equator Principles Association

The Equator Principles Association is a group of financial institutions that commit to managing environmental and social risks in project financing. Established in 2003, it provides a framework for assessing the potential impacts of large projects, such as infrastructure or industrial developments, on communities and ecosystems. Members agree to evaluate projects based on international standards and to ensure that they are sustainable and responsible. This helps promote transparency, accountability, and responsible investment practices, ultimately aiming to protect the environment and support communities affected by such projects.
