BNP Paribas has supported Emirates NBD on the closing of a USD1.75 billion five-year sustainability-linked syndicated term loan facility.   The transaction attracted demand from a global investor base, with a more than 2x oversubscription rate.   The facility is structured as a sustainability-linked loan, incorporating KPIs reflecting Emirates NBD’s role as a signatory to the UAE Banks Federation’s collective pledge to mobilise AED 1 trillion in sustainable finance by 2030 and cybersecurity resilience as a core part of the bank’s operational and governance risk framework.   BNP Paribas acted as Joint Global Coordinator, Joint Bookrunner and Joint Sustainability Coordinator on the transaction, underlining our support of UAE clients to facilitate their long-term funding and capital optimisation strategies, and in advancing their sustainability journeys.
