finansierade

Finansierade is a Swedish term formed as the past tense of the verb finansiera, meaning to provide financial support or funding. The form indicates that money or other resources were supplied to a project, organization, or activity by a funder. In Swedish, finansiera is used across public, private, and nonprofit sectors, and finansierade specifies that the support occurred in the past.

The word is commonly used in academic, governmental, and corporate contexts to describe who supported a given effort. For example, ett forskningsprojekt finansierades av en statlig myndighet, or a study was funded by a government agency; similar constructions are used with universities, foundations, companies, or international bodies as the source of funding. Finansierade can be attributed to the funder (av forskningen av Vetenskapsrådet, av företag X) or to the activity itself (projektet finansierades). The related noun finansiering refers to the act or process of obtaining funds, while finansierad describes the funded state of a subject, such as finansierad forskning.

Etymologically, finansiera and its derivatives derive from the broader economic term financing, with parallels in many languages that describe the provision of funds. In practice, disclosures of finansierade sources are common in research reports, grant applications, annual reports, and project summaries, ensuring transparency about potential funders and their influence on the work.
