About our Alliance

What business leaders are thinking:

Nicole Bardet

Member of the Executive Board of Alternative Bank Switzerland

"For us, it would be very important to have a model for change and economic transformation. With the help of a legislative framework, we can be much stronger and can go much further."

Jean-Marc Fillistorf

Member of the Executive Board of Alternative Bank Switzerland

"A clear legal framework would make it easier to identify companies committed to sustainability. And thus stimulate others to join the movement."

Kathrin Amacker

Member of the Executive Board of Alternative Bank Switzerland

"I fully support this legal framework. Regulation and accountability are now the standard we must uphold for responsible businesses within value chains."
