Green and Sustainable Finance Instruments for Corporate Treasuries

Investors and lenders increasingly reward companies that link their funding to environmental and social outcomes, and African corporates are beginning to tap this market. This course explains green loans, sustainability linked loans and bonds, and the frameworks and reporting that back them. Treasury teams learn how to structure an instrument, set credible targets and avoid accusations of greenwashing.

What you will be able to do

  • Distinguish green, social and sustainability linked finance instruments.
  • Assess when sustainable finance suits a company's funding needs.
  • Build a financing framework aligned to recognised market principles.
  • Set measurable and credible sustainability performance targets.
