We're lending millions to future-thinking businesses
Banking on a brighter future for your business? We're here to help.
Virgin Money has a bold ambition for year-end 2027 - ramping up support for businesses targeting net zero to over 20% of our business lending.
Join us on the journey to support a sustainable and thriving UK economy through responsible lending.
Why it matters
Access to sustainable financing could:
- Reduce risks in a changing economic landscape
- Appeal to eco-conscious customers and investors
- Contribute to broader social and environmental goals
Our promise
Virgin Money are committed to a climate-positive future and we've joined the Net-Zero Banking Alliance. So we've promised to reduce our carbon footprint and be a net-zero bank by 2050.

We have a range of loans for businesses whose core activities drive social or environmental change, like developing onshore wind, creating clean tech or supporting social housing.
We also want to lend to more energy intense sectors like agriculture or transport, where finance is needed to reduce emissions and move to a greener business model.
