Type: article
Abstract: The growing emphasis on environmental sustainability in the banking industry has spurred the development of Green Banking, a concept that brings eco-friendly practices into mainstream banking. It depicts a paradigm of mutually beneficial cooperation between financial institutions, industries, and economic systems, facilitating sustainable development through green financing initiatives. The primary objectives of green banking involve upgrading operational methodologies and adopting cutting-edge technologies, while promoting environmentally responsible habits among clients within the banking sector. Indian banks can adopt green banking as a business model to promote a sustainable banking industry. While some of these strategies are not yet fully integrated into the banking sector, they should be embraced by financial institutions. Banks in India could initiate various social responsibility programs to contribute to the welfare of society. Several banks in India offer green banking services to their customers. Green banking refers to the measures taken by banks to promote environmentally friendly investments. The concept of green banking is a progressive and intelligent approach aimed at ensuring future sustainability.
