Major Polish bank providing a full spectrum of banking services, focusing on individual and business clients across the country.

PKO Bank Polski is the largest bank in Poland by assets, serving millions of retail customers as well as small businesses and large corporations.

The bank operates through a wide branch network and its IKO mobile app, one of the most widely used banking apps in Poland.

Why it matters

As a major capital allocator in the Polish economy, PKO Bank Polski has a direct influence on how financing flows toward - or away from - climate-relevant sectors. The bank has established ESG risk management functions, meaning it is building capacity to assess environmental, social, and governance risks within its lending and investment portfolios. For sustainability professionals, this translates into roles focused on integrating ESG criteria into credit decisions, regulatory reporting (including EU taxonomy and CSRD requirements), and corporate governance.

With its scale across retail and corporate banking, the decisions PKO makes on green finance, fossil fuel exposure, and sustainable lending carry significant weight for Poland's broader economic transition.
