A Commitment to Sustainability

Its 100% digital operations reduce the need for travel and the use of paper, significantly reducing the carbon footprint of both its customers and itself. The bank continues to demonstrate its leadership in the sector, while reinforcing its commitment to a cleaner and more responsible future for all.
“This certification confirms our position as a benchmark in the financial sector. We are the bank with the most customers, depositors, debit cards, and credit cards, and the undisputed number one in customer transfers. Now, as the first 100% carbon-neutral financial institution in Paraguay, we consolidate our leadership in sustainability. This achievement positions us to lead the next wave of innovation: that of green loans, demonstrating that profitability, market leadership, and environmental responsibility can not only coexist, but are the key to the future,” added the director.
For his part, Oscar Iván Echeverry López, General Manager of Carbon Negative LATAM, explained: “Climate change has definitely changed the rules of the game. Society now demands that companies produce environmentally responsible products that are consistent with the fight against climate change. Sustainability has become a fundamental requirement for industrial competitiveness, and only companies that embrace it will be efficient and profitable. In this context, ueno bank demonstrates that its commitment goes beyond environmental concerns, understanding it as a key condition for competitiveness, becoming the first bank in Paraguay to obtain international carbon neutral certification,” he said.
