L'Università di Parma ha conferito nei giorni scorsi a Fabio Salviato, presidente di Banca popolare Etica, la laurea ad honorem in Economia politica. Un premio non solo alla singola persona, ma all'idea di una finanza dal basso nata in risposta alle esigenze del non profit. Il 4 e 5 novembre presso il consiglio d'Europa di Strasburgo si terrà un Forum internazionale sull'economia solidale e sull'impatto positivo che il commercio equo e la finanza etica producono in termini di coesione sociale e sviluppo sostenibile. E il 20 novembre si celebra la Giornata nazionale della finanza etica promossa dall'Associazione Finanza Etica, giunta quest'anno alla sua quarta edizione.
