Sustainable finance
Our firm’s offer in the field of financing tools and instruments that help to achieve the green transition
To contribute to the ecological transition, issuers, lenders and investors have a complete toolbox. Our banking and finance team is at your side to assist you.
The role of the financial sector and of sustainable financial tools in the green transition
The issuance of Green Bonds, Social Bonds or Sustainable Bonds allows an exclusive allocation of funds to environmental or social projects. The issuance of Sustainability-Linked Bonds promotes a virtuous circle, in which the issuer can reduce its financing cost if it achieves its sustainability objectives. In the field of asset management, extra-financial management systems are deployed and the range of investment funds which incorporate environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria is developing. The growth of ESG considerations is supported by regulatory initiatives at the European Union level and an increased investor demand.
