You left out the Environment..

While you leave out everything else and want to focus only on environment.

I got confused why basilico loco was blaming Fox going woke on ESG and he's already fixing the SVB crash to the same ridiculous notion.
This quack is the same man accusing us of being washed up in propaganda.

99% of the time, basilico doesn't even understand the lies he's pushing here, all the time.

How important is DEI to ESG

DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) is an important aspect of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investing. ESG investing takes into account environmental, social, and governance factors in investment decisions, and DEI is a key component of the social pillar of ESG.

A company that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive is more likely to have positive social outcomes and create sustainable long-term value for all stakeholders. A diverse workforce can bring a variety of perspectives and experiences to the table, which can lead to better decision-making and innovation. An equitable and inclusive workplace can create a sense of belonging and foster employee engagement and retention.

In addition, companies that prioritize DEI are more likely to avoid legal and reputational risks associated with discrimination and bias. These risks can have negative impacts on a company's financial performance and can damage its reputation among investors, customers, and other stakeholders.

Overall, DEI is an important component of ESG investing because it reflects a company's commitment to social responsibility and sustainability, and can ultimately impact its financial performance and reputation.
List American banks using ESG to advance credit

Here are some examples of American banks that are using ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) criteria to advance credit:

Citigroup: Citigroup has committed to financing $1 trillion in sustainable projects by 2030, including renewable energy and sustainable transportation. The bank also offers sustainability-linked loans and green bonds.

Wells Fargo: Wells Fargo has set a goal to provide $200 billion in financing for sustainable businesses and projects by 2030. The bank also offers sustainability-linked loans and green bonds.

Goldman Sachs: Goldman Sachs has committed to providing $150 billion in financing and investment for sustainable projects and businesses by 2030. The bank also offers sustainability-linked loans and green bonds.

Morgan Stanley: Morgan Stanley has committed to financing $250 billion in sustainable projects and businesses by 2030. The bank also offers sustainability-linked loans and green bonds.

This thread is reminiscent of media coverage in the US and what Fox News does to influence it. Here we have a vocal minority like Fox News(basilico) with a big microphone (can spend days and nights on this thread) who doesn't even live in the US or for that matter has been to the US, basically directing this topic by repeated postings of misinformation/conspiracy nuttery. And this thread spends pages and pages, discussing/debunking it. All the while, by spending the energy doing so, it makes it a bigger story.

We won't give him the space to run bare naked soiling this place with his right wing junks. That's why we keep on calling him out, cos at the end it's only Democracy and the love of Liberty that matters

How important is it for banks to make money, bas?

Do you think banks will extend credit based on ESG score if ESG credit score were not profitable?

I am very bothered by his sort.

Nigeria has much of his sort so I work as hard as I do to reduce the basilicos.

Lol that's funny 😂

It's so infuriating that people like that do exist, constantly wallowing in their ignorance and would never back down.
I don't like violence but I'll make an exception with a well lit backhanded slap to reset the brains of dookies like the these type of awful persons.

Just waiting for basilico loco's next propaganda. Blame Biden for SVB crash, while turning to a blind bat at the 16 bank failures that happened under criminal trump.
I think he hasn't gotten marching orders yet from his bullshit propaganda network.

basilico:


You left out the Environment.. We need to get rid of fossils.

Nigeria breeds them by not teaching them history and critical thinking, and you'd find that's what the Right are trying to do too.

That's why they must be forgiven, for they know not how ignorant they are made to be.

Imagine a Nigerian arguing against racism in America!

Started with SVB failure blame on Trump for an act the Chicago Jesus signed into law.
I pointed out that JB has had two years to revoke it but he didn't so SVB problems have nothing to do with Trump. At this rate we shall even lay blame on his ancestors for bringing him forth Don't know anything about SVB ...VCs pulling out, SVB announcing losses despite 172B in deposits

All ideas are good, ESG is a good idea.See what happens when you fall out of line.

Fox news has some woke presenters Not all lean right.Their ESG rating is very low.

Obrigardo:

Quackity quack.

Any specific detail that is wrong bring it to my attention.Dont dismiss , then run away besmirching an op you cannot disapprove. I quoted left wing websites today, especially how banks are dangling billions for ESG compliant clients.

Budaa, banks have always thrived without ESG woke causes.You don't want to run foul of Blackrock for a start.

I'm not ignorant. I look at both sides unlike you progressives who can't even read a Breitbart article because it's right wing

I am saying the same thing but on ESG. Some ratings that can manipulate any org out of Business. Moody's also uses ESG in it's ratings

basilico:

You are not saying the same thing.

You are stupidly blaming the rating agency for manipulating you, while I am blaming you for your stupidity in allowing yourself to be manipulated.

The "world" wants to manipulate you, so you must not stupidly allow it.

The only person he's bullying here is you. Most of us deal with its childishness by ignoring it because it's attempt at bullying is inconsequential and ineffective.

Most don't read what it writes, nor your responses to it. It will burn out once you stop fuelling it with your attention and time.

the bolded tight there, astute observation! My visits to this thread are patchy and rare but the few periods i have interest in the discourse here i refuse to waste reading absolute and utter nonsense from nonsensical monikers

IjeBos:


It's actually not just an attempt to bully me. And, by saying that it's like you're purposefully covering your eyes. He does it to other people as well. And it's destructive lies he makes up. And that's the only reason why I decided to push back more. But honestly, it's allowed to happen because he feels comfortable here, and has the likes of basilico, ben, etc. to support him. And the majority of posters here, don't push back when they do. So, this forum and thread has allowed his bullying.

then you should understand it's and it's fans and enablers worth as far beneath you and treat them accordingly. If you think failing to engage it implies it has the superior more convincing argument then you aren't giving we the relevant section of the readership the benefit of your better judgement on our abilities to exercise our intellect in knowing who's sane and those who are wilfully stup|d! You're intelligent fellow and it saddens me to see you bogged down in an exchange unworthy of your intellect, it's an easy mistake to make with the obstinate idi0ts running amok on this thread without moderator supervision, heaven knows i have been bogged down too numerous times, but fact is, like the Republican coons they champion, their arguments don't have to follow logic and make common sense, they just have to frame it in their convoluted logic and have you engaged in terms of their framing and next thing you know you've wasted a good portion of your valuable time debating nonsense with them while they pivot from issue to unrelated issue while claiming they're all related

Been thinking about US power. Was in Panama and I was impressed with the level of development. When I visited the museum I realized it was largely due to the Panama Canal which the US completed/owned (great impact of US economy and International Trade) up until Carter negotiated to give back to them in 2000. Didn't know any of this. The whole Panama locks (way or raising/lowering ships for the two differing levels of bodies of water) was very impressive. Anyhow, thought of our Politics and whether the US could do anything like that nowadays. I think the US considers Ukraine in the same vain (necessary for economic development). Learned most of this during a guided tour of a museum and the Locks, so if I'm off let me know. Pics below.

it was/is about American interests, panama was a province of Colombia whose armed secession America supported and funded for American maritime interests, building the canal was an overt act of imperialism and there was little to nothing benevolent about it. It could only take a Jimmy Carter to recognize America's moral injustice and hand over the canal to Panama. Same thing i think Russia is trying to implement with Ukraine in the crimea vis-a-vis securing their Mediterranean fleet via the black sea. I don't see them having America's Panama success though, and today, after Iraq and Afghanistan, i don't see the U.S being so overtly imperialistic as it was back then, it's no longer the wild wild west of days of yon

IjeBos:


It was a US project. But I do think Nigeria should be more closely aligned with the US. But, look at the views even in this thread. And instead we are aligning with China and Russia?

Nigeria should align with Nigeria i.e non-aligned, pity we don't have capable leaders currently, we only have yes men who only go abroad (cap in hand) to have terms dictated to them by various power blocs like servile dolts

Being woke . Science now has redefined the numbers of genders to I think 72 so far. why does science redefine gender but cant do the same with age?
That would be good for paedos because they would be able to ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

you must be proud of yourself! Being a regular Republican echo chamber, i guess you have your definition of being woke as wokeism and CRT are currently the Republican phantom bogeymen but unfortunately for you, on average across party lines being woke has positive interpretations and connotations so continue with your unsuccessful efforts, the next election will enlighten you better

^^^^^^^ Gay arsehole e.t.c. what's the obsession of these "wanna be" right wing posters with gays and arse holes. Lol

closet fantasies, as a man speaketh, so is he

President Biden is a really really really good man. No one can argue this at all. If you think otherwise, you are just an evil man (looking at you basilico).

Criminal trump will never do this, didn't do this for the 16 banks that failed under his watch.

Vote Democrats all the way!

Left leaning website definition of woke

To be "woke" generally means to be conscious of and actively opposed to various forms of social injustice, such as racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and classism. It also involves acknowledging and examining one's own privilege and biases, and taking steps to address and dismantle systemic oppression

Being "woke" has become a popular phrase in recent years, particularly in social and political discourse, as well as in popular culture. However, it has also been criticized by some who see it as performative or superficial, rather than a genuine commitment to social justice.

Signature Bank closed Trump's bank accounts with it and resolved not to do business with him. Called the Trump curse.. Ask Fredo.Ask Signature.Bank. Ask Michael Avenatti.

While praising JB, they have effectively guaranteed all depositors of their money should a bank fail. Currently 19 trillion dollars are held in deposits. Alternatively there are tier 1 and 2nd.Too Big to Fail.
Does raise the possibility of bank executives siphoning money and crashing their banks knowing the deposits are guaranteed.
And yes that's my next theory.

The. house committee led by Jordan has documentary proof of payments by the CCP of China to Joe Biden relatives .

The next largest VC funding from SVB went to Chinese start ups
JB cant let the Chinese lose their money.

There are thousands upon thousands of just people like you and me with their livelihoods in that bank. Not everyone you hear is a tech startup lives in Silicon Valley.

Oh, see another liar. You turned a blind bat to Criminal trump having Chinese bank accounts while he was still president, Ivanka using child labor in China and having as much patents in China like she's Thomas Edison.
And also bone Saw Mohammed flushing criminal trump with all that LIV golf money, Jared kushner living large on Saudi funds.

And the best gaslighting you can bring is President Bidens relatives?

Don't be stupid man

Liar Obsessed with anything Trump. Trump held an account in China to pay his moribund office staff.
Ivanka was not granted patents. She was granted (16 ?) Trademarks covering clothes, jewellery and spa services. I'm yet to see where she uses child labour, it's. a matter that JB and the UN should investigate.
Jared Kushner as far as I know got financing after Trump left office

Joe Biden relatives. What tangible businesses did they have in China which could not be summarized as influence peddling or even lobbying Remember that JB was the 'big guy' getting a 10% cut

Bank deposits are insured to 250k . A small SME can spread the risk by having several accounts in the same bank or other banks. Large depositors can gravitate to the too big to banks .
Anyway banks need closer supervision which at the same time should not be overbearing.
Signature Bank. What was the reason for closing Trump accounts by the way, is that not pandering to a woke agenda?

Obigardo, after BraniacX dug through some past and reminded me, I think it's time to place basilico on the ignored list. Just that he is so felt sorry for that one can't help trying to save him from himself. But I shall try, since he just continues to feed his non-desire to learn off the attention we give him.
