Abstract

Triodos Bank, based in the Netherlands, has expanded steadily by building a framework for socially responsible investing. During the 2007-08 financial crisis,
it prospered while other banks faltered. Behind its record of success lies a pattern of refusing to take easy or obvious steps to drive growth.
