If we are serious about sustainable development, we need to get the financing right.

We bring decision-makers together to make sustainable finance work to preserve our planet.

About us

We are one of Europe's leading Sustainable Finance and Environmental Policy Think Tanks - and we decided to do “whatever it takes” to make financial markets work for the sustainable transition.

We are an international team of more than 25 forward-thinking experts dedicated to supporting leaders driving sustainability transformation and conservation in the public and private sector. .

While we do not claim to be the best at everything, we empower those that are. We bridge, connect, and translate to unlock the solutions required for tackling the complex challenges of our times. Solutions that are anchored in the realities of corporate, policy, and financial decision-making. Solutions that may not be perfect, but that offer tangible proof of how to make our vision of a sustainable future work in practice.

„ It is obvious that gigantic sums of money are needed to reach our climate and sustainable development goals. Yet, politicians, authorities, industry and the financial market rarely speak the same language. If we want to make the sustainability transition happen, we need to stop thinking in ‘finance’ and ‘environment’ silos. We need to team up. Ingmar Juergens Co-Founder and CEO of Climate & Company

Our Impact & Portfolio

At the heart of our work lies a clear ambition: Making sustainability the foundation of future-fit, competitve business and rebuilding trust in international cooperation.

Achieving this ambition is about appreciating the importance of trade-offs. Successful solutions will be derived from striking the right balance between environmental ambition, competitiveness, and social safeguards. These solutions must also align with what our key target group, businesses and financial institutions, need to make the transformation happen in practice.

Challenges you will tackle with our support

We shape, simplify and implement sustainable finance policies and standards without compromising ambition.

Due Diligence, disclosure, and taxonomies form the foundation of more resilient and future-proof business models. We collaborate with policy makers, like the European Commission and national governments in Africa, Asia, Europe and South America, to feed our knowledge from research and practical experience working with the private sector into effective and feasible policies.

We work with companies to co-develop solutions for their sustainability transition.

By working closely with companies and financial institutions, we demonstrate that identifying sustainability impacts and risks is both feasible and essential for long-term business success. We turn sustainability into a business case by expanding access to finance, strengthening risk management for companies and financial institutions, and cutting costs through more efficient resource use.

We unlock market demand and incentives for sustainability action along global value chains.

Disclosure, taxonomies and due diligence: we are your experts from the EU engine room to help you use and shape the complex regulatory framework for sustainable finance.
