MuniFin strengthens its investment practices and publishes Sustainable Investment Framework

MuniFin has published a Sustainable Investment Framework which summarizes concrete sustainability principles, processes and responsibilities for liquidity portfolio management.

MuniFin’s ultimate objective is to embed sustainability across all its business areas. Treasury has further set concrete sustainability targets for its investments. The Framework is a transparent way to communicate these targets and principles to all our stakeholders, such as customers, investors and ESG rating agencies.

“Sustainability is in our DNA at MuniFin. This is evident in our core business, as our mission is to develop the Finnish welfare state, and in our tradition of being an active issuer of sustainable bonds. Now we want to strengthen our role as a responsible institution by publishing our own framework for sustainable investing”, says Pasi Heikkilä, Head of Treasury and Capital Markets Services.

The new Sustainable Investment Framework is one important step on MuniFin’s sustainability roadmap.

“We work hard to develop our operations in line with our strategy and values of which sustainability is a key element. The creation of Sustainable Investment Framework is part of the systematic work we carry out. We aim to increase the transparency of our investment management and promote sustainable investment practices. Simultaneously, we acknowledge the increasing importance of ESG risks that should be considered in managing our investments. This is the next step and we will continue walking”, says Kalle Kinnunen, Sustainability Manager at MuniFin.
