The bank operates through three segments: banking and insurance, real estate activity, and investments. With the mergers and takeovers of Banca Cívica and Banco de Valencia, and the retail banking, wealth management and corporate banking businesses of Barclays in Spain, CaixaBank has extended its share of the Spanish financial market. CaixaBank signed the Equator Principles in March 2007. In 2021 Bankia merged with CaixaBank to create a new entity but preservering the name of the latter. Sustainability Commitments Policies Voluntary standards CaixaBank's most important sustainability commitments can be found at the website sections listed below. CaixaBank has committed itself to the following voluntary standards: Dodgy Deals CaixaBank is linked to a number of companies and projects that BankTrack considers controversial (so called Dodgy Deals ), e.g. as a current or past financier or through an expression of interest.

In 2024 only, CaixaBank provided $2.4 bn, including $1.4 bn for oil, gas and coal companies expanding fossil fuels. Find further details on CaixaBank's fossil fuel portfolio and how it compares to other large banks globally on the Banking on Climate Chaos website below. Partner organisation Reclaim Finance tracks the coal, oil and gas policies of financial institutions, including banks, in their Coal Policy Tool (CPT) and the Oil and Gas Policy Tracker (OGPT).

Bank Last update Country Solar Energy Geothermal Energy Ocean Energy Energy grids and storage Hydropower Hydrogen Solid Biomass Biofuels CCUS Nuclear Power Details ESP 0 1101100000000 Explanation The purpose of the False Solutions Tracker is to give a clear overview of energy technologies that fall under banks' individual sustainable finance commitments. The tracker lists 11 energy technologies that are usually associated with the energy transition and the decarbonisation of the economy. These technologies are defined here and classified in three categories: Real solutions : Technologies that deliver on a Just Transition towards Energy Democracy. BankTrack considers these technologies as real solutions only if and when they do deliver Energy Democracy. Solutions under strict conditions : Energy technologies that could be real solutions if they deliver on a Just Transition towards Energy Democracy but that could also be false solutions. This is the case of hydrogen and hydropower. On one hand, fossil-free and green hydrogen could be a real solution under certain conditions. However, fossil-based hydrogen and nuclear hydrogen are always false solutions. On the other hand, hydropower lifespan extension could also be a real solution under strict conditions while hydropower expansion is a false solution. False solutions : Energy technologies that are not aligned with a just transition towards Energy Democracy. For each one of the 11 energy technologies, the tracker indicates if it is included in bank's individual sustainable finance commitments: For Real solutions : ​​ : Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. ​ : Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting, but under certain conditions. In this case, those conditions are mentioned in the "relevant policy document" section for each bank. ​ : No, the bank does not include its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. ​  : It is unclear whether the bank includes or not its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. For solutions under strict conditions  and for false solutions : ​ : Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. ​ : Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting, but under certain conditions.

The bank operates through three segments: banking and insurance, real estate activity, and investments. With the mergers and takeovers of Banca Cívica and Banco de Valencia, and the retail banking, wealth management and corporate banking businesses of Barclays in Spain, CaixaBank has extended its share of the Spanish financial market. CaixaBank signed the Equator Principles in March 2007. In 2021 [Bankia merged with CaixaBank](https://www.caixabank.com/es/accionistas-inversores/informacion-general/fusiones.html) to create a new entity but preservering the name of the latter. Sustainability Commitments Policies Voluntary standards CaixaBank's most important sustainability commitments can be found at the website sections listed below. CaixaBank has committed itself to the following voluntary standards: Dodgy Deals CaixaBank is linked to a number of companies and projects that BankTrack considers controversial (so called [Dodgy Deals](https://www.banktrack.org/show/page/what_are_dodgy_deals)), e.g. as a current or past financier or through an expression of interest. The profiles below provide more details on the nature of CaixaBank's link to these deals.

However, it is possible to lodge a complaint with the OECD National contact point (see [OECD Watch guidance](https://www.oecdwatch.org/how-to-file-a-complaint/)). Caixabank is an [Equator Principles](https://equator-principles.com/) signatory. While the Equator Principles have no official grievance mechanism, complaints relating to this bank's financing of Equator Principles projects can be filed through our own website [www.equator-complaints.org](http://www.equator-complaints.org/). This page evaluates CaixaBank's responses to instances of alleged human rights violations linked to its finance, raised by civil society organisations. It is not intended to be exhaustive, but covers selected impacts raised by BankTrack and other civil society partners since 2016. For the full scoring methodology, see [here](https://www.banktrack.org/download/bank_response_tracking_2021_criteria_in_full). For more information about BankTrack's evaluation of bank responses to human rights impacts, see the 2021 report ["Actions speak louder: assessing bank responses to human rights violations"](https://www.banktrack.org/download/actions_speak_louder_assessing_bank_responses_to_human_rights_violations).

More info *** Average 0% 0 0 0 0 Banks and Climate The 2025 Banking on Climate Chaos report showed that CaixaBank provided \$18.4 bn in financing to the fossil fuel industry between 2021 and 2024. In 2024 only, CaixaBank provided \$2.4 bn, including \$1.4 bn for oil, gas and coal companies expanding fossil fuels.

BankLast update Country Solar Energy Geothermal Energy Ocean Energy Energy grids and storage Hydropower Hydrogen Solid Biomass Biofuels CCUS Nuclear Power Details ESP 0 1101100000000 Explanation The purpose of the False Solutions Tracker is to give a clear overview of energy technologies that fall under banks' individual sustainable finance commitments. The tracker lists 11 energy technologies that are usually associated with the energy transition and the decarbonisation of the economy. These technologies are [**defined here**](https://www.banktrack.org/download/renewable_definition_policy_tracker/241022_glossary_renewable_definition_policy_tracker_1.pdf) and classified in three categories: 1. **Real solutions**: Technologies that deliver on a Just Transition towards Energy Democracy. BankTrack considers these technologies as real solutions only if and when they do deliver Energy Democracy. 2. **Solutions under strict conditions**: Energy technologies that could be real solutions if they deliver on a Just Transition towards Energy Democracy but that could also be false solutions. This is the case of hydrogen and hydropower. On one hand, fossil-free and green hydrogen could be a real solution under certain conditions. However, fossil-based hydrogen and nuclear hydrogen are always false solutions. On the other hand, hydropower lifespan extension could also be a real solution under strict conditions while hydropower expansion is a false solution. 3. **False solutions**: Energy technologies that are not aligned with a just transition towards Energy Democracy. For each one of the 11 energy technologies, the tracker indicates if it is included in bank's individual sustainable finance commitments: For **Real solutions**: - ​​: Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. - ​: Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting, but under certain conditions. In this case, those conditions are mentioned in the "relevant policy document" section for each bank. - ​: No, the bank does not include its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. - ​ : It is unclear whether the bank includes or not its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. For **solutions under strict conditions** and for **false solutions**: - ​: Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting. - ​: Yes, the bank includes its finance towards this energy technology in its sustainable finance reporting, but under certain conditions.
