I checked old forums but haven't seen anything related to this since 2020. I'm currently at a firm that is focused in renewable energy investments, but I'm trying to make a move to a larger bank. Since I have a background in the renewables space, I figured it makes sense to seek a role that's also related to renewables or sustainable finance.
I know Bank of America has a Sustainable Finance group. Wells Fargo has something called REEF (Renewable Energy Environmental Finance). Macquarie has a Clean Energy Transition group. Of course there's Greentech. I think RBC has a Sustainable Finance group too.
Maybe most banks do but they go by different names. Can anyone suggest some groups within bank/firms that have this type of focus? I appreciate the help.

Barclays has a Sustainable and Impact Banking Group that has been doing well - NYC, London, Canada.
JP Morgan has one as well. I know they are doing PF transactions not sure if that also includes the M&A/Advisory side of things.
Also interested.
Citi has an new/alternative energy finance group in their capital markets division that does principal investment, marathon is a strong boutique in the space.
Some European banks (e.g. BNPP, Santander, ING) have sustainable finance groups but these are mostly focused on originating "sustainable" debt products outside the renewables space, e.g. bonds earmarked for energy transition purposes for their regular corporate clients.
GS has a renewable power group and they have people sitting in Boca Raton/ Miami (your area atm)
It's an investment banking coverage group or are you referring to an alternatives investment group? Are you able to share more info on this or a link?
Citi has a Clean Energy Transition group in Houston
Sustainability-Linked Loans (Sustainable Finance) - have expertise here. Planning to write a Thought Leadership piece on the 1st 100 Deals in this space, focusing on data-driven analysis. And plan to have a online course section w/ exercises on this topic. Figure its a hot topic, it'll get some buzz perhaps. The insights I put together are great tho, well beyond the anything published that you can Google (published articles thus far have been very basic, summing total volume and such which isn't as important as KPI trends etc.
@Fast and Fiduciary - If u are serious, feel free to reach out directly in the meantime.
MS has a young guy in Public Finance that's considered a rockstar in sustainability but doesn't have a stand-alone Sustainability Group as far as I'm aware. JPM does have a very new, stand-alone Sustainability group.
Know anyone in particular in the JPM NY group? I believe the group has grown, they're taking interns for SA 2027
Truist is currently hiring for an analyst spot in their IB ESG group
I know Morgan Stanley has two sustainable finance hubs namely in NYC and London. They also have a Sustainable Finance Summer program, but I think it seems to be fairly new and they hire one intern per division (AM, GCM, Research)
Pretty much all bulges have groups covering these at this point, there’s too much demand out there to ignore it, even if some of it is driven by marketing/greenwashing. They might be organized a little different from place to place but all have teams on green financing, ESG, renewables/energy transition coverage in some fashion.
Surprised no one mentioned Nomura Greentech, they have a coverage group dedicated to it
