25 years of sustainable products
Zürcher Kantonalbank began with its first sustainable investments at the end of the 1990s and launched its first sustainable bond fund in 2004. We are convinced that taking sustainability aspects into account can make a positive contribution to performance, which is why we apply systematic ESG integration for our sustainable bond funds. Last but not least, we aim to reduce the risk of credit default through vigorous ESG analysis.
