Part 1 - Green Loans - Overview of the key
features
Notwithstanding that pandemic loans and supports have dominated
the loan market so far in 2020, green and sustainability linked
loans have increased in importance and are likely to continue to do
so over the coming years. As green loans and sustainable finance
evolve and increase in popularity, Eversheds Sutherland has
prepared a practical overview of these innovative products.
In this the first of our two part briefing, we examine the
‘Green Loan Principles' and the accompanying
‘Guidance on the Green Loan Principles' as published by
the Loan Market Association and highlight some of the key aspects
and qualifying criteria. In Part 2 of our briefing we will look at
the Loan Market Association's equivalent principles and
guidance with respect to Sustainability Linked Loans.
