Platzer establishes an MTN programme of SEK 5 billion and launches a green financial framework
Platzer establishes an MTN programme with a framework amount of SEK 5 billion for borrowing on the Swedish bond market and launches a green financial framework that allows the issue of green bonds.
Platzer Fastigheter Holding AB (publ) has created a base prospectus for the MTN programme of
SEK 5 billion that has been approved and registered today by Finansinspektionen (the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority). The prospectus is available on Platzer's website, platzer.se, and on the Finansinspektionen website, fi.se.
In conjunction with the programme, Platzer has established a green financial framework in consultation with Svenska Handelsbanken. The framework is based on Green Bond Principles and has received the classification of ”Medium Green” in a second opinion from Cicero Shades of Green. The framework gives the company the opportunity to finance the type of project and assets that are covered by the framework by issuing green bonds under the MTN programme. The framework and second opinion are available on Platzer's website, platzer.se.
Svenska Handelsbanken is the lead bank for the MTN programme and will act as an issuing institution, together with Nordea, SEB and Swedbank. Advokatfirman Cederquist has been Platzer’s legal advisor regarding the MTN programme.
- The establishment of an MTN programme is a milestone for Platzer which takes a further step into the capital markets and that provides a source of finance that strengthens the company's long-term financing capacity. "The green debt framework supplements Platzer's green share framework and is a natural part of Platzer's sustainability work and a piece of the jigsaw in the path towards becoming a completely green financial company," says Fredrik Sjudin, CFO at Platzer.
