Sembcorp gets $1.2b sustainability-linked loan facility

The green loan is pegged to Singapore Overnight Rate Average.

Sembcorp Financial Services Limited secured a $1.2b sustainability-linked loan facility, which is the first and largest Singapore Overnight Rate Average (SORA) based loan for an energy company in Southeast Asia, Sembcorp Industries, bared.

The five-year facility will be used for general corporate purposes and financing or refinancing Sembcorp’s renewable energy and sustainable projects.

It will be subject to margin adjustments linked to pre-agreed Sustainability Performance Targets on Sembcorp’s greenhouse gas emissions intensity and gross installed renewable energy capacity, which complies with the Sembcorp Sustainable Financing Framework.

Sembcorp said the facility is arranged by Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited, DBS Bank Limited and Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited, where each are lead arranger and bookrunner. 

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited is the lead sustainability coordinator and DBS Bank Ltd. and Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited are designated as the joint sustainability coordinators.

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.
