Our story
ISFC helps financial institutions, investors, and policymakers in Central and Eastern Europe integrate sustainability into strategy and practice—so capital drives a just, competitive transition.
Our team combines private and public sector expertise in finance, policy, research, and compliance. We also tap into a trusted international network covering climate, circular economy, decarbonisation, biodiversity, and more.
This blend of knowledge and experience allows us to turn complexity into clarity—offering practical guidance financial and public actors can trust and apply.
“We founded ISFC because the shift to a sustainable economy needs more than ambition—it needs clarity and evidence. In Central and Eastern Europe, where change is accelerating, we saw the need for a centre that equips decision-makers with objective, actionable insights, instead of advocacy.”
Linda Zeilina-Cross, Founder & CEO
