About
ZeniZeni Sustainable Finance is an Africa-based globally-focused ‘think and do tank’. We provide perspectives and solutions to our clients and partners that deliver sustainability through finance.
We see finance as an integral part of any economy and a key tool in delivering sustainable growth and development. And as such, we also see the need for the financial sector itself to move towards a state of sustainable equilibrium. In our view, this state of sustainable finance is where the financial sector is fully accountable for its actions, is led by transformative and ethical leaders, has the skills and capacity to work sustainably and is guided - and held in check - by an effective advocacy network of organisations and individuals.
