We at the SWISS Association for NET ZERO Assets believe implementing ESG is all about co-creating investment opportunities and leveraging higher returns – not about ticking regulatory boxes with the risk of green washing the current business be it on the company or investment side.
The SWISS Association for NET ZERO Assets was founded by experienced practitioners in industry and financial services to move the needle towards more sustainable investment goals providing higher returns to ultimately shift the focus to where the money needs to flow – sustainable investments to achieve the common NET ZERO goal of 2030 the international community committed on – because there is no planet B. We commit ourself to education, collaboration and foremost the co-creation of NET ZERO Assets bringing companies creating assets and financial services, investing in and managing assets together to scale money flows into ESG / SDG / NET ZERO compliant high return long term assets.
