"Sustainable banks start by determining basic human needs to be met and then deliver financial services which meet those needs," said David Korslund, senior advisor to the Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV). "In contrast", he suggests, "most banks start by asking: 'How can we make as much money as possible?'"Korslund has had plenty of experience to draw on in making this distinction. His 30 plus year banking career began at the South Shore Bank in Chicago, one of the early innovators in sustainable finance. He moved on to mainstream banking to get exposure to the broader banking world becoming executive vice president at a large international bank with responsibility for running global planning and performance management.
