About the initiative
More funds for our socio-environmental projects
In early 2021, we closed a public offering of US$ 400 million in sustainable bonds, maturing in 2026. The proceeds will be used to finance or refinance triple impact projects in Latin America in three priority areas:
- Environmental impact reduction: Increased use of renewable energies, energy efficiency projects, purchase of sustainable packaging and materials, and implementation of sustainable mobility.
- Financial inclusion: Financial inclusion and more credit lines for SMEs and entrepreneurs.
- Social development: Education and training projects to foster digital inclusion, and help young people enter the labor market.
The corporate debt security structure adheres to the Green Bond Principles (GBP), the Social Bond Principles (SBP), and the Sustainability Bond Guidelines, published by the International Capital Markets Association (ICMA).
Transparency
Regular reports will disclose the use of proceeds, including financial management, project evaluation and selection, and the tracking of results based on clear metrics.
By 2026, we will have invested USD 400 million in initiatives that have a positive economic, social and environmental impact in Latin America.
