🐌Slow Finance is a branch of the Turin "Innovation Circle," which applies the values of Slow Food—Good, Clean, and Fair, forever, for everyone—to the world of finance.
Slow Finance was born from the academic research project of Matteo Basei Fantolino, M.Sc., at the International University College of Turin, as a continuation, organic synthesis, and practical combination of the contributions of Carlin Petrini, Woody Tasch, Gervais Williams, Cinzia Scaffidi, Luigino Bruni, Pamela Matson, Krister Andersson, William C. Clark, Gaël Giraud, Manfred Max-Neef, Antonio Elizalde, Martin Hopenhayn, Mario Calderini, Oscar Farinetti, and Valter Cantino.
Slow Finance transcends Karl Marxs reductionist vision of value to monetary capital alone, recognizing the plurality of capitals—social, cultural, environmental, and relational, etc.—and abandons John Maynard Keyness vision, which reduced well-being to economic growth and full employment alone. Slow Finance is the result of revitalizing the Donut Economy. We promote freedom from the psychology of performance and machismo, to prioritize the intrinsic motivations of our actions: meaning, direction, significance, belonging, and affectivity.
We dedicate our efforts in memory of Professor Valter Cantino, former rector of the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo, and we are guided by the legacy of Adriano Olivetti and Amadeus Peter Giannini. Applying the principles of "Teal Organization" (Laloux), combined with the practice of "Adaptive Leadership" (Harvard - Heifetz, Linsky, Grashow), can define not growth as an end in itself, but a dynamic process that intertwines economic responsibility, social justice, and ecological balance.
Slow Finance represents the framework for a new individual, collective, and generational pact. A finance that pursues the creation of common goods and integral human development, in continuity with the principles of the Social Doctrine of the Church.
