Public Property Invest unveils sustainable financing framework

Public Property Invest (PPI) has introduced a Sustainable Financing Framework, aligning its sustainability goals, including social and environmental considerations, with its financing operations. This framework supports PPI's portfolio of community service properties with government-backed tenants, such as hospitals, police stations, courts, nursing homes, and schools. Marianne Aalby, evp finance, expects the framework to attract bond investors.

The framework defines eligibility for both green financing, covering green buildings and renovations, and social financing, for essential service properties like healthcare and educational facilities. It aligns with principles from the International Capital Market Association's (ICMA) and the Loan Market Association (LMA).

ISS-Corporate provided an independent second-party opinion, confirming the framework's adherence to established guidelines. DNB Carnegie served as the sole Sustainable Finance Advisor.
