MyFairMoney is an independent, non-profit, non-commercial resource platform on sustainable investing. Our mission is to provide retail investors with educational resources on sustainable investing, as well as details on the sustainability performance of financial products. MyFairMoney was built by 2° Investing Initiative and has received funding from various public institutions, which are listed below.

ADEME, Agence de la transition écologique, is a public agency under the joint authority of the French Ministry for an Ecological Transition and the French Ministry for Higher Education, Research and Innovation.

ADEME works in four areas:

  • ADEME organizes and contributes to the financing of research and innovation and to establishing and coordinating observation systems to better understand how industries are changing;
  • ADEME implements communication campaigns to change mindsets, behaviours and purchasing and investment practices;
  • ADEME acts in an advisory capacity to direct the decisions of actors in society and the economy, establishing tools and methods that suit their needs. Direct dissemination via expert advisers is a major way in which it provides its expertise;
  • ADEME provides graduated financial support and promotes the implementation of regional and national references.

In the context of this project, ADEME supported the international version of MyFairMoney and to update the platform.

Horizon 2020 (H2020 for short) is the funding instrument for implementing the Innovation Union, an initiative to secure Europe's global competitiveness.

Through H2020, nearly €80 billion in funding is available over a 7-year period (2014 to 2020) - in addition to the private investment it aims to attract. The EU Commission expects more breakthroughs, discoveries and world firsts by bringing great ideas from the lab to the market.
