Whitepaper: The role of cash flows in the circular economy transition

The aim of the white paper was to enrich the discourse on financing the circular economy in Switzerland with new insights and existing knowledge on the transition from linear to circular business models, with the overarching and longer-term goal of mobilising the necessary cash flows for the establishment of a circular economy.
To this end, ecos organised a market sounding workshop to identify the challenges and needs of companies that have an affinity for a transition to circular business models and products but have insufficient access to capital. The workshop was organised with the involvement of selected financial partners in order to integrate both perspectives and stimulate discourse. The results of the workshop were summarised in the white paper.
