"His majesty set this up in 2020 with a goal of driving the private sector to do more, faster for sustainability, a future that's sustainable for all. We're a CEO-led organization, a volunteer army coalition of willing people who believe that we've got to make this happen the right way in the current context and in the future context."
"The private sector is critical to this. As we said from the beginning: 'If you need to get this done, private sectors have to drive it-they have the money, innovation, the techniques.'"
"BofA is sticking to the path, despite the noises from the White House. It did pull out of the United Nation's Net Zero Banking Alliance in 2025 along with JP Morgan and Citi but said it still remained committed to its customers on the energy transition."
Senior executives from Bank of America, State Street, and EY gathered at Hampton Court Palace to promote private sector efforts toward energy transition and climate sustainability. Their work stems from King Charles III's Sustainable Markets Initiative, established in 2020 to accelerate business and investor commitment to renewable and nuclear energy. Despite the Trump administration's withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement and criticism of sustainability efforts, these financial leaders remain committed to the energy transition. Bank of America withdrew from the UN's Net Zero Banking Alliance but maintains dedication to supporting customers through the energy transition, emphasizing that the private sector possesses the capital, innovation, and techniques necessary to drive this transformation.
