Taking New Approaches
ESG-Linked Promissory Note
With the issuance of an ESG-linked promissory note, we are once again engaging in a pioneering effort within our industry.
By linking the interest rates to reliably measurable sustainability metrics , we define concrete guidelines for our investment and refurbishment activities. Our objective is to raise our green building ratio in our own portfolio (Commercial Portfolio) to at least 20% by the end of 2023.
Clearing this mark will bring down the interest rate for subsequent interest rate periods by 5 basis points.
A positive contribution to climate change mitigation will simultaneously lower our finance expense – clearly a win-win arrangement.
