The aim of Green Tiger is to shape the movement into the next big countrywide initiative. Green Tiger can also be compared to the Estonian Tiger Leap computerization project from a few decades ago. Green Tiger creates a circular economy model for individuals, the community, as well as the private and the public sector. Green Tiger will be a future trendsetter for other countries. So far, LHV is the initiative’s only representative and partner from the banking sector.
