Maria Håkansson
Swedfund is Sweden’s development finance institution with the mission to reduce poverty through sustainable investments in developing countries. Swedfund’s work plays an important role in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda and the Paris Agreement on climate. Swedfund has two instruments to fulfil its mission: sustainable investments in the private sector and early-stage project development in the public sector.
Swedfund’s investments contribute to the creation of decent jobs and increased access to essential products and services such as electricity and food. Swedfund is a long-term investor and aims to be additional and catalytic through its investments and by mobilising private capital. Swedfund’s feasibility studies enable public infrastructure development and local impact while supporting trade and export opportunities for Swedish companies.
