Transition finance is evolving rapidly, underpinned by newly launched transition-related guidance. What does this mean for Asia-Pacific, which has been at the forefront of transition finance, advancing localised assessments and initiating the transition label?
Co-hosted by APLMA and Sustainable Fitch, this webinar will examine the implications for issuers, arrangers and investors across Asia-Pacific.
Key Discussion Points
- The Asia-Pacific region has long championed transition finance and localised assessments. What lies ahead as transition finance frameworks become more formalised?
- What do the new APLMA/LMA/LSTA and ICMA guidelines for transition bonds and loans mean for the market?
- How do these guidelines interact with local taxonomies and entity transition plan frameworks to support robust assessments of transition strategies and project eligibility?
- How will issuers and arrangers apply them in practice, and how are investors likely to respond?
- How do Sustainable Fitch Second-Party Opinions (SPOs) assess labelled transition bonds and loans?
- Transition finance trends in Asia-Pacific: where are the opportunities by geography and sector?
