How to apply for the Nordic Swan Ecolabel

These three factors are important to take into account from the start if you are considering an application:

• The investment fund must be covered by the UCITS regulations
• The investment fund must be registered for distribution in at least one of the Nordic countries
• The investment fund must invest at least 50 % of its assets in equities, corporate debt and/or non-corporate green bonds that fulfil certain additional criteria

It is also possible to apply for the Nordic Swan Ecolabel in the process of launching a brand-new fund. If you wish to market a Nordic Swan Ecolabelled fund from the date of inception, it is important to contact us as soon as possible in the planning phase.
