Policies
Voluntary standards
PNC has committed itself to the following voluntary standards:Investment policies
The corporate social responsibility report (below) of PNC Financial Services Group makes mention of the development of a mountain top removal policy in 2010, which was subsequently enhanced in 2014. Under the policy PNC will not extend credit to individual mining projects or to coal producers with 25 per cent or more of their production coming from MTR mining.
The same document makes mention of an extended due diligence procedure for the coals & minerals industry, electric & gas utilities and the oil & gas industry.
PNC also plans to to adopt a formal policy that prohibits construction financing of single coal-fired power plants, which lack the most advanced environmental control processes, such as carbon sequestration.
