Ambition of the lab
Sustainable Finance Lab's overarching ambition is to foster real change and progress in terms of how financial markets – in Sweden and beyond – engage with and facilitate social and environmental sustainability. As a consortium, the Sustainable Finance Lab will develop an ecosystem of both incumbent and non-traditional actors to facilitate development of innovative and sustainable, yet commercially viable, business ideas and financial practices which align with broader societal sustainability goals.
