We offer guarantees for international trade that prioritize sustainability. Our solutions ensure both environmental and social responsibility.
We provide sustainability-linked guarantees and green guarantees for international trade. Our approach integrates sustainability principles to promote environmental and social responsibility, while encouraging performance goals.
Sustainability-linked guarantees are standard guarantees with added pricing incentives. These incentives encourage corporations to achieve ambitious, predetermined sustainability goals. The design is similar to sustainability-linked loans, linking the product to the company's sustainability strategy and targets. The methodology for selecting KPIs and targets follows the same procedure as sustainability-linked loans, as outlined in the sustainability-linked loan principles.
A Green Guarantee is like any other Bank Guarantee, except that it is exclusively used for projects or products aligned with SEB’s framework for green financing, SEB Green Bond Framework. In this way, the Green Guarantee supports projects and assets that contribute to an environmentally sustainable society.
A Green Guarantee is linked to green assets in ten categories, such as Renewable Energy and Green Buildings.
SEB expands the palette of sustainable financing with green and sustainability-linked bank guarantees. The technology consultant Sweco is the first to link its existing guarantee facility to the company’s long-term climate and gender equality goals.
