Our work in practice

Addressing climate change is one of Finnfund’s key objectives. Finnfund assesses the climate risks of every investment as part of our investment process. This includes an assessment of both physical climate risks as well as transition risks.

Finnfund assesses the climate effects of every investment as part of the investment process leading to an investment decision, as well as annually during each respective investment period.

Respecting and promoting human rights are at the very core of Finnfund’s work. In this article we explain, step-by-step, how our human rights due diligence works in practice and how we identify the projects that require human rights assessments going beyond what is covered in the IFC PS and the ILO CLS.

Tax revenue and other tax-like fees paid by companies to the public sector in developing countries constitute one of the development aims of Finnfund’s work with the companies it finances.
