Mastercard Priceless Planet Coalition unites companies, financial institutions, local authorities and consumers around the world with the common goal of restoring 100 million trees by 2025 and implementing actions that contribute to safeguarding the planet and fighting climate change.

Madrid, October 5 2021. Banco Sabadell, committed to a more sustainable economy and improving the planet, announces that it will join Mastercard's global Priceless Planet Coalition project with the goal of restoring 100,000 trees by 2025.
