The Nordic Swan Ecolabel licence is valid in all Nordic countries. The annual licence fee is based on the size of the assets under management (AUM) that Nordic unitholders hold in the Nordic Swan Ecolabelled fund. Therefore, this amount must be reported once a year according to instructions from Nordic Ecolabelling. Based on the reported amount, the licence fee is calculated and invoiced by the Nordic Ecolabeling secretariats respectively.
