ETHICAL FINANCE: CITIZENS' MONEY, FOR GOOD
How Ethical is your money?
Do you know how your savings are invested?
Does your bank finance the weapon industry abroad, or does it support the local, social economy?
Do you have a say in how your bank is managed?
Ethical finance was born to answer these questions (and many more!)
FEBEA is the European Federation of Ethical and Alternative Banks and Financiers. It gathers 30 financial institutions from 15 countries in Europe, with the aim of developing and promoting Ethical Finance principles.
This is what we do, it is in our nature; we cannot and do not want to do anything else."
