Identifying sustainability preferences
The EU has developed a regulatory framework that helps you take sustainability into account when investing. Therefore, we collect information about our customers’ sustainability preferences.

Sustainability‑related disclosures
The SFDR (Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation) is an EU regulation designed to make it easier for you to compare the sustainability efforts of different financial products. The regulation on sustainability‑related disclosures, as SFDR is called in Swedish, has created a standardised way of reporting on sustainability. It sets requirements for how financial market participants within the EU must inform their customers about their sustainability work, both at company level and for the products they offer.
The main objectives of the regulation are to:
- increase transparency regarding sustainability
- facilitate the financing of growth in a sustainable manner
- counteract greenwashing
