Financing for a
Better Future
Sustainable Financing Framework
Building on the success of our Green Bond Program, we have developed a broader and more comprehensive Sustainable Financing Framework to address critical development challenges in the border region, in line with our core environmental mandate.
Our framework covers financing for a wide range of initiatives:
Water and wastewater management
Manufacturing and Products
Waste management solutions
Resiliency and adaptation
Air quality improvement
Access to basic services
Urban development
Reduced exposure to air quality hazards
Renewable energy projects
We carefully select each project based on its potential to generate significant environmental benefits or improve access to basic services for the people living in the border region. Our robust project evaluation and selection process ensures compliance with strict environmental, community, transparency and accountability requirements.
To validate the soundness of our approach, S&P Global Ratings issued a second-party opinion of the framework. This assessment confirms the alignment of our practices with institutional objectives and recognized international principles and guidelines for sustainable financing.
