CLI debuts sustainability-linked panda bond, raises $187.1M

The panda bond was 1.65 times subscribed.

CapitaLand Investment (CLI) raised  $187.1m from its inaugural sustainability-linked panda bond issued as part of its RMB2b Debt Issuance Programme.

In an announcement, CLI said its panda bond, due in three years at 3.5% per annum, recorded a subscription rate of 1.65 times.

CLI plans to use the net proceeds from the issuance to refinance existing borrowing.

The sustainability-linked panda bond is tied to the company’s target of lowering its energy consumption intensity by at least 6% at its properties in China.

“ The reduction in energy consumption intensity will contribute to CLI’s efforts in meeting the targets set out in its 2030 Sustainability Master Plan, which include achieving Net Zero carbon emissions for scope 1 and scope 2 by 2050 and reducing scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions by 46% by 2030,” the company said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
