Executive Summary
Green banking, also known as a social, an ethical bank, alternative, civic, or sustainable bank, is a bank concerned with the social and environmental impacts of its investments and loans. Ethical banks are part of a larger societal movement toward more social and environmental responsibility in the financial sector. This movement includes: ethical investment, socially responsible investment, corporate social responsibility, and is also related to such movements as the fair trade movement ethical consumerism, boycotting, etc. Ethical banking is a juvenile sector within this movement. Other areas, such as fair trade, have comprehensive codes and regulations to which all industries that wish to be certified as fair trade must adhere. Ethical banking has not developed to this point; because of this it is difficult to create a concrete definition distinguishing exactly what it is that sets an ethical bank apart from conventional banks. Ethical banks are regulated by the same authorities as traditional banks and have to abide by the same rules. In this report at first I tried to summarize an overview of SJIBL. Then I tried to define definition of green Banking, history and background of green banking. In the middle of our report, I motivated by our study to describe about the importance, major areas, products of green banking. Then I give various initiatives taken by internationally, nationally to implement green banking. Then we tried to describe the green banking policy of SJIBL. I also give some findings of report. In conclusion I describe the advantages of SJIBL to use Green Banking as an instrument to reach the 16 core people of Bangladesh. Because one of the major economic agents influencing overall industrial activity and economic growth is the financial institutions such as banking sector. Since banking sector is one of the major stake holders in the Industrial sector, it can find itself faced with credit risk and liability risks. Further, environmental impact might affect the quality of assets and also rate of return of banks in the long-run. Thus the banks should go green and play a pro-active role to take environmental and ecological aspects as part of their lending principle, which would force industries to go for mandated investment for environmental management, use of appropriate technologies and management systems. This paper explores the importance of Green Banking, sites international experiences and highlights important lessons for sustainable banking and development in Bangladesh. Finally this paper tries to draw picture how Sustainable development can best be achieved by allowing markets to work within an appropriate framework of cost efficient regulations and economic instruments.

1.1 Introduction
Deforestation, dissertation, flood, soil erosion, siltation, sedimentation, river bank erosion, increased evaporation, Co2 emissions, rising sea-level, displacement, cyclones, Stalinization, arsenic contamination are most burning word in the present world. And all words are related natural disaster and climate change. Because, climate change is the most complicated issue the world is facing. Across the globe there have been continuous endeavors to measure and mitigate the risk of climate change caused by human activity. Another name of this attempt is Sustainable Development to us. The process of sustainable development involves all sectors in the economy Government, NGOs, corporate, citizens and, of course, the financial sector. Our beloved mother land Bangladesh is one most affected country by this climate change. And Bangladesh banking industry is ahead one step from other financial institutions for taking endeavors to measure and mitigate the risk of climate change caused by human and banking activity. This activity is familiar in banking industry with title of Green Banking.

Bank, consists of prominent ulema, reputed banker, renowned lawyer and eminent economist. Members of the Shariah Council meet frequently and deliberate on different issues confronting the Bank on Shariah matters. They also conduct Shariah inspection of branches regularly so as to ensure that the Shariah principles are implemented and complied with meticulously by the branches of the Bank.
In March 2009, Congressman Chris Van Hollen in USA introduced a Green Bank Act with the aim of establishing a green bank under the ownership of the US government. Its objective was to offer financial support to efforts to increase efficient energy usage, and reduce carbon emissions and environmental pollution resulting from energy creation. Bank Technology News has recently given Citigroup the US banking giant, top honors in its first ranking of 'America's Greenest Banks. The award highlighted the accomplishments of Citi's Sustainable Operations and Technology program, which includes dozens of initiatives aimed at shrinking environmental footprints and controlling costs. In just one example, Citi updated computer hardware across the 1,000+ Citibank branches in North America, reducing energy costs by 15 percent a year, while improving the speed with which it services customers. The Financial Times of London announced the Sustainable Banking Awards last year. UK's Cooperative Bank won the 'Sustainable Bank of the Year' award and only HSBC, among large global banks, was a runner-up in any category. he good news is, BRAC Bank Ltd from Bangladesh became the regional winner for 'Asian Emerging Markets Sustainable Bank of the Year', which they are also portraying in all their bill boards and promotion campaigns. Good news for all of us.

In the long run, the trend towards green banking will be largely driven by consumer behavior. Common people and consumers are becoming increasingly aware of the responsible behavior of businesses.
targets and strategies, and disclose these in their annual reports and websites. They will have to set up green branches. The banks should increasingly rely on virtual meeting through video conferencing. According to the draft guideline, banks in the next one year will adopt a green strategic plan, determining their target for green banking. The draft says a system of environment management should be in place in all banks before they step into the third phase of green banking, to be completed by June 2013. In this final stage, banks will focus on fine tuning of their green activities and will look for more innovative products and services to expand eco-friendly business and industries. Commercial banks will have to adopt a comprehensive green banking policy by December 2013 as part of the central bank's efforts to make banking practices more responsible to social and environmental causes. The central bank will name top ten banks for their overall performances in green banking, and will take into account to give it permission to open new branches. In its policy guideline for green banking, the BB said co-friendly business activities and energy efficient industries should get preference in financing by the banks. The banks will have to inform the BB of their initiatives on a quarterly basis within 15 days after the end of a quarter. The first quarterly report has to be submitted by July 15, 2011.Besides avoiding negative impacts on environment through banking activities, the banks are expected to introduce environment friendly green products to address the core environmental challenges of the country. The commercial banks will now require taking measures to protect environmental pollution while financing a new project or providing working capital to the existing enterprises. The guidelines advised the banks to facilitate their clients with utmost care in opening letter of credit for installation of effluent treatment plant (ETP) in the industrial units. They were also asked to finance in solar energy, biogas, ETP and Hybrid Hoffman Kiln (HHK) in brickfield under BB e -finance scheme.

be circulated among the employees. Instead of relying on printed documents, online communication should be extensively used (where possible) for office management. Energy saving bulbs should replace the regular ones in branches/offices of the banks. They should make plans to use solar energy on their premises, and encourage employees to purchase energy efficient cars.
Bankers are the important professional group who has interaction with the other groups of people and also with general masses. They can adopt different green activities within their in-house environment and also can initiate the protection of the air pollution, water pollution by their clients. Bankers can finance the green projects, which are environmental friendly and discourage the projects that damage the environment. It will be obligatory for each person to show respect to the environmental issues. Otherwise, the environments where the concerned person lives will be inhabitable and as whole the country and the globe will no longer be safe place. We have to use resources carefully and keep in the mind that the reserve of the resources is not unlimited and its excessive use may endanger the future generation. We have to think that each of our activity has a specific impact on the environment. As a best creation of Almighty, we have greater role to conserve the environment, maintain biodiversity, not to Page 23
endanger other fauna and flora and above all a green, healthy planet for safe and sound living of our future generations. Since banking industry is a vital institution in the economic and business activity round the world, bankers cannot remain indifferent to this burning issue. A banker or a banking industry may address many issues to save environmental degradation and conserve the ecological balance. Green banking is a good way of making people aware of global warming. Each businessman will contribute to the environment and make this earth a better place to live and enjoy. In addition, it is envisaged that this institution is going to work towards reducing the country's dependence on foreign energy sources, fighting climate change
and creating additional jobs through the provision of healthier energy generation facilities. Green finance may cover all the financial services related to the promotion and development of green industry and green economy where the environmental benefits in terms of reduced carbon dependency or reduced ecological scarcity are the most significant. Green banking practices of banks are connected with both internal operation and product ecology. Some banks are engaged in carbon offsetting, which refers to the effort of canceling out the climate-changing effects of its own greenhouse gas emissions. Banks, by using their commercial lending and securities underwriting, may catalyze the necessary transition to an economy that minimizes greenhouse gas pollution and relies on energy efficiency. Page 24
There is no doubt that the combined threats associated with climate change and biodiversity loss call for a deeper commitment of resources and investment from all stakeholders. In the endeavor of emission reduction and conservation, stakeholders have been contributing in different ways in different countries and regions. Green banking is just one of the initiatives by stakeholder - banks and financial institutions. The environmentally responsible banks do not only improve their own standards but also affect socially responsible behavior of other businesses. The banks will have to go for online banking by eliminating paper waste, saving gas and carbon emission, reducing printing costs and postage expenses.
of paper as well as thousands of trees that provide raw materials for paper production. Similarly, if we select a location of the branch of a bank with sufficient access to light and air, it will save huge electricity and create a healthy environment. Wastages must be grouped like organic and inorganic wastage. Organic materials like food, vegetables, animals etc. can be recycled for manure, gas and electricity etc. The inorganic material like paper, bottles, pots etc. can be recycled. Wet and degradable materials can be processed directly keeping under the soil. The recycling materials should be disposed off at the respective disposal site and the rotten items should be buried under the soil and as such, pollution can be protected. Clean and hygienic environment: A green banker will not throw any waste, bottles or packing materials here and there. Each group of waste should be kept in a separate place, which does not pollute the environment and all the wastes must be disposed off separately. A green banker will not spit or cough on the floor, walls or on the road. On line statements, emailing documents: We must send account statements and balance confirmation etc. to the clients through online and through email, which will save paper, time, cost and above all the environment. We may use these technologies for our clients as well as interbank correspondence. Sound Pollution: We should keep our voice low when we converse and also convince our clients maintain this for the sake of healthy working environment in the branches. Installation of solar panel in the rural branches and using high mileage vehicles or using shared vehicles instead of personal vehicle: Since Bangladesh is an energy deficit country we can install solar panels in all Branches as an alternative energy source. We can also use the vehicles which consume less fuel which will save huge fuel import of the country. We can also use big vehicles to carry the employees of the Banks instead of personal vehicle to reduce fuel as well traffic jam in the roads.

the long run. The Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM) is a type of HUD-approved green mortgage that will credit you for your homes energy efficiency in the mortgage itself. Many home improvements also qualify for the energy tax credit. Anyone undertaking an energy-saving house project should shop around for a bank that offers a special rate for a green mortgage or loan. Green Credit Cards: A green credit card allows cardholders to earn rewards or points which can be redeemed for contributions to eco-friendly charitable organizations. These cards offer an excellent incentive for consumers to use their green card for their expensive purchases. Imagine the millions of dollars that could be raised for worthwhile environmental groups if green credit cards really took off. Green Reward Checking Accounts: A product called reward checking accounts pays a bonus rate to customers who go green. Customers can earn higher checking account rates if they meet monthly requirements like receiving electronic statements, paying bills online or using a debit or check card. With this banking product higher rates and ecofriendly livings go hand-in-hand.

Recommendation
Bank should keep following aspects in mind while financing any projects: 1. Analyzing the project in terms of scale, nature and the magnitude of environmental impact. The project should be evaluated on the basis of potential negative and positive environmental effects and then compared with the without project situation. There should be an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of each project recommending the measures needed to prevent, minimize and mitigate the environmental negative impact before financing the projects. 2. While investing or funding the projects, the financial institutions should assess the sensitive issues like vulnerable groups; involuntary displacement etc and projects should be evaluated in terms of environmentally important areas including wetlands, forests, grasslands and other natural habitats. 3. Banking institutions need to evaluate the value of real property and the potential environmental liability associated with the real property. Therefore, the banks should have right to inspect the property or to have an environmental audit performed through the life of the loan. 4. Banks also need to monitor post transaction for the ideal environmental risk management program (Rutherford, 1994) during the project implementation and operation. There should be physical inspections of production, resources, training and support, environmental liability, audit programs etc. 5. The next round of evaluation includes loan structuring, credit approval, and credit review and loan management. Further banks have annual audits, quarterly environmental compliance certificate from the independent third party and also from the government
Further the banks can introduce green bank loans and products like:
i. Investing in environmental projects (recycling, farming, technology, waste, etc) for ii. example reduced-rate of interest on loans to homeowners who install a solar energy system Providing option for customers to invest in environmentally friendly banking products Page 43
iii.
Conclusion
There is a growing awareness among banks and financial institutions to protect the Page 44
environment and thereby save 'mother planet'. Big banks are committing large funds on a sustainable basis in responsible banking, creating more values for our next generation. They are shifting forward from 'profit' to 'people' and now more importantly, to create a better future for all. The sooner this philosophy of 'green banking' is embraced, the better it is for all. A good online banking system is the linchpin of reduced costs, improved performance and competitiveness. We provide the service at no cost to our retail and business customers. The logical progression of online banking - converting existing customers to online bill payment - is a harder step and can require a lot of legwork. Once customers get here, there is the chance of moving to completely electronic banking. The positive outcomes of these green initiatives are evident in many instances. However, these are the results of collective efforts. There is no doubt that the progress so far has been made possible because of the substantial efforts of all stakeholders, covering banks, policy makers, civil society organizations, international development and financial institutions, business entities and the common people (consumers).
