CIMB Bank and CIMB Islamic Bank have rolled out preferential financing rates for new hybrid vehicles and residential properties certified under the Green Building Index (“GBI”). The move marks another significant step towards the CIMB Group’s (“the Group”) embracing of Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) principles Group-wide.
CIMB customers will be offered 10 basis points (0.10%) lower interest rate versus the applicable promotion interest rate, for new hybrid vehicles1 as well as for GBI-certified residential properties2. These offers support CIMB Group’s commitment to embed sustainability principles Group-wide, while also supporting the global initiative for responsible banking, through the Group’s membership of the United Nations’ (UN) Environment Programme Finance Initiative Principles for Responsible Banking (UNEP-FI).
CIMB Group is currently the only banking group in Malaysia and ASEAN to be a founding member of the sustainable initiative, together with 26 other leading banks from five continents and 19 countries.
