Climate Transition Bonds
Gain access to the professional bond market
The Climate Transition Bond Fund empowers you to invest in corporate bonds, typically only available to professional investors, providing stability, optimized returns and low risk. With a strong commitment to reducing CO2 emissions from high emitters, we deliver economic value to our investors and foster positive environmental change for society.
Real World impact
We currently reduce or avoid approximately 100 tons of CO₂ annually for every DKK 1 million invested.
For comparison:
-
A typical Danish household emits around 13 tons of CO₂ per year
-
A fossil-fuel car emits about 3 tons of CO₂ per year
-
A round-the-world flight emits roughly 5 tons of CO₂
This means that:
-
An investment of DKK 130,000 in the fund can “offset” a household’s annual CO₂ emissions
-
DKK 30,000 can compensate for a fossil car’s yearly emissions
CO₂ reduction from DKK 1 million invested corresponds to:
33X
Annual CO₂ emissions from a fossil-fuel car
20X
Round-the-world flight by plane
7,5X
Annual CO₂ emissions from a Danish household
-
We base all calculations exclusively on official and verified data provided by the companies, which has been third-party assured (e.g. by an auditor).
-
Data is reported either at the level of the individual bond or for the portfolio as a whole.
-
New bonds are included with a conservative assumption of zero CO₂ reduction until proper documentation is available.
-
If the issuer’s impact report does not explicitly state whether the tCO₂ reduction refers to an annual figure or the full project lifetime, it is standard market practice to assume an annual reduction.

Real World Impact
The global economy will remain reliant on high emission sectors for the foreseeable future. In the short term, abandoning them completely is irrational and non-sensical, making it an unviable solution. Rather, our mission is to support their transition to greener alternatives. We do this by actively backing the green projects and ambitions that are continuously emerging within these sectors.
Our investments target high emitters committed to a green transition, as documented and verified by third parties. This approach ensures your investment directly reduces annual emissions precisely where it matters most in the real world, making a decisive impact in combating climate change.
We aim to enhance your investment’s impact on climate transition by maximizing annual CO2 reduction. The companies we invest in, provide annual impact reports, verified by independent auditors. This approach delivers measurable, tangible, and genuine societal impact— Going beyond mere promises on paper!
