Green finance

Crédit Agricole CIB acts as Sole Green Structuring Agent and Active Joint Bookrunner in Pacific Life’s Inaugural EUR Green Bond

<body>The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR Government) has completed an approximately HK$27 billion multi-tranche green and infrastructure bond offering in four currencies – HKD, CNH, USD and EUR – concurrently for the first time.  Crédit Agricole CIB acted as Joint Global Coordinator on all tranches, as well as the lead-left Joint Green and Sustainable Bond Structuring Bank on all three green tranches, playing a pivotal role in structuring the transaction, ensuring alignment with international standard while optimising smooth execution across multiple currencies. The multi-tranche offering has garnered significant interest from global investors, underscoring Hong Kong SAR's long-term commitment to sustainable finance and infrastructure development, solidifying its position as an international finance centre and a leading sustainable finance hub in Asia.  The green bonds and the infrastructure bonds are issued in accordance with the HKSAR Government’s Green Bond Framework and Infrastructure Bond Framework respectively. Proceeds raised will be used to finance or refinance eligible green projects and infrastructure projects in accordance with the relevant frameworks. Crédit Agricole CIB is honoured to be the only bank mandated as Joint Green and Sustainable Bond Structuring Bank and Joint Global Coordinator in all institutional green bonds ever issued by the HKSAR Government, totalling about US$23 billion since 2019. The achievement reaffirms the Bank’s leadership in sustainable finance and commitment to contributing to the city’s sustainability agenda.<a @href="Quote1">Quote1</a><a @href="Quote2">Quote2</a><a @href="Quote3">Quote3</a></body>

<body>The Carbon Transport and Storage project in UK’s Liverpool Bay area will operate as the backbone of the HyNet Cluster to transport carbon dioxide from capture plants across the North West of England and North Wales, through new and repurposed infrastructure to safe and permanent storage in Eni’s depleted natural gas reservoirs, located under the seabed in Liverpool Bay. The initiative foresees the efficient repurposing of part of the offshore platforms as well as 149km of onshore and offshore pipelines, and the construction of 35km of new pipelines to connect industrial emitters to the Liverpool Bay Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) network.In this milestone deal, Crédit Agricole CIB acted as Sole Financial Advisor, Mandated Lead Arranger and Hedging Bank in the financing of the construction.The project is the first of a kind in the Carbon Capture, Usage and Storage (CCUS) industry. Aiming to transform one of the UK's most energy-intensive industrial areas into one of the first low-carbon industrial clusters in the world, it is a landmark transaction that represents a key advancement in the development of the CCUS industry globally and highlights Crédit Agricole CIB’s strong commitment to support clients in their energy transition journeys. Furthermore, it benefits from one of the most supportive regulatory regimes in the world developed by the UK Government. Coming online in 2028, the project will transport and store 4.5m tonnes of CO2 per year with a potential to increase up to 10m tonnes per year after 2030, playing a critical role to achieve UK Net Zero emission targets.<a @href="Quote1">Quote1</a><a @href="Quote2">Quote2</a><a @href="Quote3">Quote3</a></body>
