Swedbank
Sweden
This leading Swedish bank clearly understands its environmental impact and works for continual improvement. Swedbank applies environmental principles in its credit policy and risk assessment procedures. Its environmental loan evaluation process serves as an incentive for corporate customers to review their operations from an environmental perspective. Swedbank also offers environmental and ethical investment funds. The company purchases environmentally preferable energy and works to reduce its paper usage, energy consumption, and related CO2 emissions. In recent years, the company has expanded its business to areas outside of Sweden, and the company aims to expand the coverage of its existing environmental management system to include these new operations. Additionally, Swedbank aims to have 85% of its employees understand the importance of environmental considerations in its business dealings. Given the company's history, Portfolio 21 expects that Swedbank will be successful in carrying over its environmental commitments to these newly acquired business divisions.
