At Swedbank, we work to reduce our own environmental impact and encourage our clients, as well as the companies in which we invest, to consider sustainability-related risks and opportunities in their decision-making. We offer a range of Sustainable Finance and investment solutions, advisory and research.

Sustainable Finance Solutions

Green Equity

Green Equity can help increase transparency around a company's sustainability profile and is available for companies where a majority of revenues and investments are assessed as deriving from green activities by an external party.

Green Loans

We offer our corporate clients Green Loans within renewable energy; energy efficiency; sustainable management of living natural resources; pollution prevention and control; and clean transportation.

Sustainability Linked Loans

Sustainability Linked Loans are financing solutions that link the borrower's sustainability performance to the interest rate.

Green, Social and Sustainability Bonds

Green, Social and Sustainability Bonds enable financing of assets and projects expected to deliver a positive environmental and/or social impact and can contribute to greater transparency regarding an issuer's sustainability efforts.

Sustainability Linked Bonds

Sustainability Linked Bonds are performance-based instruments that are linked to how well an issuer can meet a number of pre-defined sustainability goals.

Sustainable Commercial Papers

Commercial papers are short-term debt instruments issued by companies to cover their short-term financing needs. There is a growing interest in embedding environmental, social and governance factors in investment decisions. As a result of this the interest for sustainability-related commercial papers that are specifically designed to finance sustainable activities have emerged.

Sustainable Funds

There is great potential in companies that find solutions to the world’s sustainability challenges. This benefits both the companies and those investing in them. As part of our financial analysis, we identify companies’ sustainability risks as well as their opportunities for improvement.

Advisory and Research

Swedbank Macro Research produces analysis on sustainability related themes within the macroeconomic field. For example, a recurring product is our Sustainability indicators, which measure the progress of Nordic and Baltic countries towards achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Sustainability topics is a standing element in our flagship macroeconomic report, Swedbank Economic Outlook, and in several of our other research products.
