As part of the green finance movement, Grüfin is using novel investing strategies to complement and support climate action by choosing funds with companies that show their commitment to climate goals. Grünfin portfolios are with global companies that rank high in sustainability matters. This is crucial because in order to make a difference and have an impact, large industries must be apart of the solution. Grünfin then interacts with these companies and works with them on topics concerning climate change, workforce conditions, and public health.

More than 80% of women want their investments to promote social well-being and sustainable development of the planet and Grüfin’s goal is to provide a financial product aligned with the values for the future that female investors appreciate.
