Barclays is bankrolling one of the most corrupt companies in the world.
Authorities are investigating coal giant Adani for fraud and bribery… but
still, Barclays keeps the money flowing.
It's time regulators take tough action against the banks propping up this
corrupt climate-wrecking company.
Tell French and UK regulators to investigate Barclays.

John,
Adani, the world's largest private coal developer, thinks it is
invincible. Fraud, deception, bribery, Indigenous rights abuses… but
still, the world's biggest banks finance this corrupt company.
Now, pressure is growing on regulators to investigate banks like Barclays
for funding Adani despite knowing that the company committed fraud.
Financial regulators aren't used to the public spotlight. If tens of
thousands of us demand they take swift action against these banks, we can
force them to investigate and stop the flow of funds propping up dirty
coal giant Adani.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission and Justice Department are
already investigating Adani for bribery, fraud, and deception, and
Geneva’s Public Prosecutor is digging into allegations of money laundering
and forgery.
Yet despite mounting evidence of Adani’s crimes, French and British banks
like Société Générale, Standard Chartered, and Barclays have arranged
million-dollar bonds that have helped Adani mine, handle, and burn record
volumes of coal and become the number one driver of the climate crisis.
It’s why it’s time to tell French regulator AMF and British regulator FCA
to take action against banks propping up this corrupt, climate-wrecking
company.
People power has pushed Adani back for decades. The Ekō community has
stopped Adani from digging the Carmichael coal mine in Australia. We
forced Adani to cancel its plans for a $1.2 billion bond sale in 2024 – a
major financial setback! We also stopped Scottish investor Abrdn from
investing in Adani bonds and drove a notable reduction in financial
support for Adani. It’s time to hold accountable those bankrolling Adani
again.
