Out now – a new FAO -EBRD study on integrating sustainability-linked loans (SLLs) into agrifood finance. Agrifood systems are under growing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and ensure more sustainable production practices. This report explores how SLLs can contribute to this transition. Between 2017 and 2023, about 5% of global SLL issuance targeted the agrifood sector. This is slightly above the sector’s share of conventional syndicated lending, which reflects the relevance of SLLs for agrifood systems. But as development finance institutions show a growing interest for innovative finance solutions, how can SLLs be adapted to the realities of financing agrifood companies operating in low- and middle-income countries?
