REUTERS/Stephanie Lecocq/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Oct 3 (Reuters) - The number of instances of greenwashing by banks and financial services companies around the world rose 70% in the past 12 months from the previous 12 months, a report on Tuesday showed. European financial institutions accounted for most of those instances, and much of the greenwashing involved claims about fossil fuels. "Over 50% of these climate-specific greenwashing risk incidents either mentioned fossil fuels or linked a financial institution to an oil and gas company. The European Banking Federation did not respond to a request for comment on the increasing number of greenwashing incidents found by RepRisk. The banking and financial services industry is second only to oil and gas for the number of greenwashing incidents, RepRisk said.

Ratings firms that assign environmental, social and governance ratings to companies — a multi-billion dollar endeavor — are coming under scrutiny in the Senate. ESG ratings assess how companies align with sustainability goals such as greenhouse gas emissions, labor practices or water sustainability. In the statement, Toomey said ESG ratings firms have a unique ability to influence valuable global ESG assets. The senator requested copies of non-proprietary methodologies used by the firms to assess ratings by Sept. 28 in letters sent to credit raters. The letters were sent to ratings firms MSCI, ISS, Bloomberg, Sustainalytics, Moody's, Carbon Disclosure Project, S&P Global, FTSE Russell, RepRisk, FactSet, Refinitiv, and Arabesque S-Ray.
