Bonds

Bonds comprise Vasakronan’s largest source of funding and are issued with maturities of up till 25 years. All of the bonds are unsecured and are encompassed by a change of control clause that provides investors with the right to sell the bonds back to Vasakronan in the event of a change of ownership.

Green bonds

Green bonds are issued under Vasakronan’s EMTN programme, and the documentation corresponds with Vasakronan’s other EMTN bonds. The difference is that the proceeds from green bonds are used solely for investments encompassed by Vasakronan’s Green Bond Framework.

The Vasakronan Green Finance Framework describes the investments that lead to lower energy consumption and lower climate impact, and which therefore qualify for financing with Green Finance Instruments. The second opinion on the framework was reviewed by the Center for International Climate Research (CICERO).

The following impact reports describe the investments made under the Green Bond Framework and the green bonds issued. You can read more about green financing here.

EMTN programme

In October 2018, Vasakronan established an EMTN programme of a maximum nominal amount of EUR 6 billion or its equivalent in other currencies. The programme allows funding on the capital market in a variety of currencies and replaces the former MTN programme.
