Sustainability Linked Finance and Green Loan Structuring

Banks and corporates across Africa are structuring loans that tie pricing to sustainability performance, opening new sources of capital. This programme explains how sustainability linked and green loans are designed, verified and monitored. Delegates learn to select credible performance targets and structure instruments that withstand scrutiny.

What you will be able to do

  • Distinguish green loans, sustainability linked loans and use of proceeds instruments.
  • Select key performance indicators and sustainability performance targets that are credible.
  • Structure pricing mechanisms that reward or penalise performance against targets.
  • Apply market principles and frameworks that govern sustainable lending.
  • Design verification and reporting arrangements that prevent greenwashing.
  • Evaluate a financing proposal for alignment with recognised sustainable finance standards.
