Returns and Responsibility.

It’s in our Nordic DNA.

Make your investments matter.

Sustainability is arguably the biggest challenge we are facing on a global scale. As individuals, we decide how to respond to this challenge on a daily basis, be it by recycling or using public transportation. However, we often feel there is very little we can do to combat and prevent such large scale sustainability issues, like climate change or poverty.

Yet, the small choices that each of us make are important at a collective level. And as an investor, you can have more impact than you think. Responsible Investment (RI), also referred to as Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investments, is a powerful way to take sustainability factors into account and foster positive change.

At Nordea Asset Management (NAM), we offer a number of RI solutions that aim to have a positive impact while delivering attractive returns. We take sustainability matters seriously. This is not only because we believe it is our responsibility, but also because we are convinced this is good for the investments we manage on behalf of our clients.

To find out why Responsible Investment is important click here.


Together, we can transform the future.

Our longstanding pledge to RI

Our RI Commitment

  • Sustainability is deeply rooted in our Nordic corporate culture, philosophy and business model: it stands at the core of our DNA
  • Our senior management is strongly committed to RI:
    • Our NAM CEO chairs the Responsible Investment Committee (RIC) which oversees our responsible investment strategy and activities
    • Our parent group created a sustainable finance team with direct access to the Nordea Group CEO
  • NAM launched our first ESG sector-screened funds in 1988. In 2007 we took our RI approach a step further by being an early signatory of the UN’s Principles for Responsible Investment. Since then we have joined many further local and international ESG initiatives
  • We have built an award-winning Responsible Investment (RI) team, one of the largest in Europe in terms of pure ESG analysts
  • To get a deeper understanding of how companies operate, the RI teams’ responsibilities include field trips and engagement dialogues. We consider this an integral part of our process
