Environmental stewardship guides every decision we make and lives at the core of our vision

Brad Stevenson
Chief Executive Officer

Brad Stevenson is a lifelong activist, entrepreneur, leader and champion of sustainability. He has coached, consulted and led within organizations ranging from Fortune 20 multinationals to non-profits, small businesses and startups in addition to founding his own ventures. He has over 25 years’ experience in purpose-driven strategy, both with the Boston Consulting Group and independent endeavors across dozens of industries. In 2018, realizing the power that banks have over the environment, he helped convene a movement of advocacy groups, brands, influencers and responsible banking leaders to make banking part of the fight against climate change. This movement also led to the creation of the 1% for the Planet personal checking account, which lets consumers support environmental nonprofits through their everyday spending. 

When he’s not working to save the world, Brad is out exploring it. He has sailed across the Atlantic, biked unsupported through Southeast Asia, ridden a Royal Enfield through India and kayaked the waters of Tonga. Fluent in Spanish, he has lived, worked, and traveled extensively in Europe, Asia and the Americas. His passion for giving back has extended to being a Big Buddy, serving on boards of numerous community organizations and 12 years volunteering with Mountain Rescue Aspen. The Premiums for the Planet® movement is the culmination of a life spent in advocacy, advisory, community and leadership positions, a life where boardrooms and backcountry trails have played equally important roles.
