DPC Statement: Sustainable development investment from Finland to least-developed countries need clear criteria and encouraging examples

12.10.2022

Although significant sums are already being invested by Finland in least-developed countries,
private investment could bolster the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) even more systematically. Private and public funding could support each other in this respect.
This is the view of the Development Policy Committee (DPC), which commissioned a report on the topic entitled Financial transformation in sustainable development. The report examines Finnish investors who are committed to responsible investing, the amounts being invested and
which of the least-developed countries receive Finnish investments. It also examines investors’ strategies for sustainable development investing.
