Responsible business

Our ability to assess a company’s value today and in the future is an important part of our savings offering, which largely consists of funds. In fund management, we see sustainability risk as financial risk, and therefore assessment is an important part of all the steps in the long-term financial analysis.

Sound, responsible lending is our core business. Before each major credit decision for a corporate customer, we carry out a risk assessment of economic, social and environmental sustainability. This includes human rights, corruption, the environment and climate.

To ensure accessibility for every customer group, Swedbank works in several ways to make it easier for our customers to meet the bank, both physically and digitally.

Sustainability is integrated into the procurement process in agreements, risk assessments and monitoring for all reported purchases exceeding EUR 50,000.
