The EMF-ECBC launched a project to create an energy efficient mortgage today (Tuesday) that it said could pave the way for broader take-up of green covered bonds, after Berlin Hyp yesterday inaugurated a combined Pfandbrief and senior green programme with a Eu500m seven year unsecured deal.
Berlin Hyp sold the first green covered bond today (Monday), attracting almost Eu2bn of orders for a Eu500m seven year issue, with bankers suggesting the deal printed in line with where a conventional Pfandbrief would have priced while attracting new investors to the paper.
Six years after the germination of the idea, the first Green Pfandbrief is coming to fruition thanks to careful nurturing by Berlin Hyp and its partners. Here, they discuss the credentials and potential of an investment that promises to be sustainable in more than one sense of the word.
MünchenerHyp issued the first sustainable covered bond today (Wednesday), a Eu300m five year deal that tapped into growing interest in SRI bonds and which the issuer’s head of treasury and an investor who participated in the transaction said will hopefully be the first of many.
Münchener Hypothekenbank eG (MünchenerHyp) on 8 September unveiled plans for the first ESG covered bond. In this special sponsored feature, those involved in the project consider an ESG Pfandbrief against the backdrop of sustainable investment and explore how it might fit into wider SRI developments in the bond markets.
