Ethical finance and the future of social economy
On the 1st of December, the 8th Report on Ethical Finance in Europe, entitled “Capital for the Common Good: Ethical Banks and the Social Economy for Europe’s Future“, will be presented at the European Parliament in Brussels. The meeting will bring together representatives from FEBEA, GABV, EIB, European Commission, Social Economy Europe and Gruppo Banca Etica to discuss the contribution of ethical finance to the future of the European social economy.
EURICSE contributed to the 2025 edition of the Report with a chapter dedicated to the social economy in Europe. The contribution analyses in more detail the structural relationship between ethical finance and social economy organisations, highlighting complementarities and synergies. The chapter is authored by the Secretary General Gianluca Salvatori, together with EURICSE researchers Chiara Carini and Stefania Turri.
