"We see a major appetite for sustainable investments which influence the world in a positive direction. We also see that people are especially concerned with climate. We are accommodating this by making our ecolabeled funds fully CO2-neutral," says Bankinvest's CEO Lars Bo Bertram in the announcement. | Photo: Bankinvest/PR
