5 min read

SINGAPORE (S&P Global Ratings) April 1, 2021--S&P Global Ratings said today that Zhenro Properties Group Ltd.'s green bond framework is fully aligned with the four components of the green bond principles (GBP). The framework alignment opinion report is available here.

"We consider Zhenro's green bond framework to be fully aligned because it commits to using net proceeds of financing issued under the framework to fund eligible green projects that fit into the categories defined by the GBP," said Chloe Lin, the primary contact at S&P Global Ratings.

The framework provides details on the management of proceeds, outlines the process for project evaluation and selection, and commits a high level of transparency for impact reporting. Zhenro's GBF allows the company's investors to participate in its efforts to facilitate the transition to an environmentally sustainable future.

The green bond framework reflects Zhenro's commitment to promote sustainable environment development meets some of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) from the United Nations. It presents the respective SDGs each eligible green project category supports. These include clean water and sanitation (SDG 6); affordable and clean energy (SDG 7); industry, innovation and infrastructure (SDG 9); sustainable cities and communities (SDG 11); responsible consumption and production (SDG 12); and climate action (SDG 13).
