Sub-sections
  • Rabobank has developed a bilateral loan facility with a margin linked to food waste, in an attempt to homogenise parts of the otherwise bespoke sustainability-linked loan market, making it easier for treasurers to add ESG financing to their capital structures.
  • International investors are set to get their first chance to buy a carbon neutrality bond from China, with China Development Bank preparing for a deal this week. This is encouraging, and shows the country is serious about using capital markets to propel its carbon goals. But the government’s credibility will remain in doubt unless it makes changes elsewhere too.
  • A HK$5.29bn ($682m) green loan to support the acquisition of Hong Kong-based building Cityplaza One by a Gaw Capital Partners-led consortium has been launched into general syndication.
  • Yorkshire Building Society is bringing its debut environmental, social, and governance securitization, which will be the second “social” RMBS offered in Europe, and the first to be backed by vanilla prime collateral.
  • High grade corporate bond investors were given the choice between a green trade from Finnish paper company UPM-Kymmene Corp and a conventional trade from UK cigarette maker Imperial Brands on Monday, with some investors passing up on the cigarette company on ESG grounds.
  • New high yield issues announced on Monday offered investors both ends of the environmental spectrum — a green deal for Spanish property developer Via Celere, or a refinancing for oilfield services firm CGG. Real estate group Foncia sits somewhere in between, with a deal funding a dividend to Partners Group.
