    Sustainable Financing Frameworks: Leading‑Market Methodology Explained

    As sustainable finance matures, market participants are increasingly focused on establishing robust and coherent classification systems to determine whether a transaction qualifies as sustainable, which can cover multiple instruments while aligning with evolving market practices. Sustainable Financing Frameworks (SFFs) have become a key tool for banks to structure, govern, and communicate their sustainable finance strategies in a credible and consistent manner.

    This webinar will explain ISS-Corporate’s methodology for assessing Sustainable Financing Frameworks, outlining the purpose and scope of an SFF, key differences between Framework‑level External Reviews and transaction‑level Second Party Opinions, and when each is most appropriate. It will also explore optional analytical add‑ons, key assessment dimensions, expected levels of disclosure, and topics that commonly trigger discussion during reviews. Drawing on practical insights, the webinar will highlight how SFFs can be effectively operationalized and integrated into issuance, governance, and decision‑making processes.
