The BNP Paribas Group is born of successive mergers between several banks that were created during the industrial revolution early in the 19th century. From the start, these banks’ missions were to finance the economy and serve their customers worldwide. This long-standing purpose over two centuries is now deeply embedded in the Group’s fabric.
BNP Paribas was officially established on 23 May 2000 at the merger between BNP, France’s leading deposit bank, and Paribas, an international investment bank. But its features and values have been forged, transmitted, and acquired over 200 years of history marked by developments, transformations, and challenges – in a word, BNP Paribas represents two centuries of a bank at the service of the global economy.

Today, climate change is becoming the main driver of biodiversity erosion. Protecting and preserving ecosystems are now major concerns worldwide. That is why the BNP Paribas Foundation renamed its program the “Climate & Biodiversity Initiative” in 2019. The call for projects now supports scientific research on both climate and biodiversity.
BNP Paribas Foundation implements awareness-raising activities every year, familiarizing the public, BNP Paribas employees, and its partners with environmental issues.
The Foundation also supported the Global Youth Video Competition to encourage the youth to take part in activities to fight climate change. The annual awards ceremony takes place each year at the COPs organized by UNFCCC.
