Green Financing
Green Financing exactly fits Clariant’s focus on sustainability as part of its purpose-led growth strategy and the Group sees this financing option as a key contributing factor to reaching the company’s goals. Continuously steering environmental performance towards increased sustainability is a clear priority for Clariant. With the vision of becoming climate neutral by 2050, the Group has set ambitious targets and has also identified the means by which to reach these goals.
The Green Financing Framework provides an opportunity for investors to learn about Clariant’s journey towards reaching its goals and also explains how the Group drives positive transformation within the specialty chemistry industry. Through this Framework, Clariant may issue different green financing instruments including, but not limited to, Green Bonds and Green Loans. The proceeds of such Green Finance Securities issues will be exclusively allocated to “Eligible Assets” which promote the transition towards a low-carbon and environmentally sustainable society.
