The interest in saving sustainably continues to increase, and savings alternatives that have a clear focus on climate change are what most people demand*. With the launch of the new fund Climate Impact, Swedbank Robur aims to meet that demand in a clear way and take yet another concrete step in achieving its climate goals. Climate Impact is classified as a dark green fund according to the EU SFDR** and invests in companies that contribute to solving the world's climate challenges, mainly those related to the UN's Global Development Goals 7 (Affordable and clean energy ) and 13 (Climate action).
"We have had a strong focus on the climate issue for many years and want to take a clear stance in issues that are important to our customers and investments. The growing interest in saving sustainably and with the climate in focus, are central and positive drivers in our dedicated work to continue to shift capital in a more sustainable direction. As Sweden's largest fund company, it is our responsibility to dare to think new and go first, and to meet customer demand in a clear and hands-on way", says Liza Jonson, CEO of Swedbank Robur.
Linnea Zanetti, one of the portfolio managers of Swedbank Robur Climate Impact, also highlights the connection between value growth and sustainability.
"We have long worked according to the principle that companies that contribute to a better world are the winners of the future. In the Climate Impact fund, we will use a quantitative and systematic process to select the companies that have a clear connection to the UN Global Development Goals 7 and 13. The fund has a global investment focus and in total we have selected around 80 companies in different industries, which we believe meet our requirements. It sets a stable foundation for a good balance and growth potential for the fund," says Linnea Zanetti.
Swedbank Insurance, a wholly owned company of Swedbank, with 1.2 million customers in Sweden and a managed capital of SEK 200 billion, will be an anchor investor in the fund.
Swedbank Robur Climate Impact can primarily be linked to the UN's global development goals 7 (Affordable and clean energy) and 13 (Climate action).
