Swedbank and Swedish Savings Banks’ Young Economy initiative
Public education for children and youth and cooperation with schools has always been important to Swedbank and the savings banks. In 2011 the Swedish national curriculum was revised, and since then private economy is a part of social science in Swedish upper secondary school. This was also the starting point for Swedbank and the savings banks to agree on a nationwide educational offering to schools with the intention of contributing with expertise and experience in this field. The educational initiative called “Young Economy” has since then been one of the bank’s most prioritized societal engagements for children and youth.

“A job at last” - Swedbank responds to a social challenge
Swedbank took the initiative to create 17 apprentice places with a duration of six months within our branches in southern Sweden in co-operation with the Swedish Employment Center. In the future the aim of the project is not only to create trainee positions at the actual branches, but more importantly to encourage and help the bank’s corporate clients to offer trainee positions themselves.
