Lion Finance scores 26/100 (Significant gaps) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified August 2026.
That places Lion Finance joint 545th of 650 companies scored, and 40th of 44 in Financial Services / Banking.
Lion Finance Group has documented climate strategy and board oversight, but fails on execution. No quantified emissions reported for operations or financed portfolio despite claims of measurement. Green loans comprise just 4.3% of the book. Without verified data, the company's environmental commitments remain rhetorical.
