Cooperation with the WWF


 
ERSTE-SPARINVEST (ESPA) and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Austria established an internationally well perceived cooperation already back in 2006. Since then, two stock funds, i.e. the ESPA WWF STOCK UMWELT and the ESPA WWF STOCK CLIMATE CHANGE, have been bearing the name of WWF. This organization guarantees, as one of the largest and most significant protectors of the environment, together with the established environmental investment board, that both investment products stick to strict ecological and social criterias with respect to their stock selections.

ERSTE-SPARINVEST waives part of the earned management fees to support water and climate related protection programs on a continuous basis. Since the start of this cooperation, a significant amount of means could be raised and handed over for forward-looking projects in the field of water and climate protection. Hence, this cooperation on the interface between ecology and economy proves that “sustainability” and “finance” must not be opponents.
