The Green Bond has a nominal value of EUR 250 million, a tenor of 10.25 years, and a coupon of 2.25% for the first five and a quarter years after which there is an option to early redeem the bond. If the bond is not early redeemed, the interest rate is reset to maturity at 2.4% above the annual Euro mid swap rate. The Green Bond has been placed below nominal value at 99.497%. The placement of the Green Bond results in an increase of the Tier 2 Capital which is a diversification of the Total Capital of Triodos Bank.
The Green Bond is in line with the ICMA Green Bond Principles, Climate Bond Initiative Standards and the EU Taxonomy recommendations. It has been assessed by a Second Party Opinion as best market practice on all components. This confirms Triodos Bank’s ambition to ‘change finance, by financing change’ and underlines its position as frontrunner in sustainable banking.

Credit substitute guarantees are guarantees to customers for loans provided to these customers by other banks. Non-credit substitute guarantees are guarantees to customers for all other obligations of these customers to third parties. For example:
Obligations to purchase sustainable goods, such as wind turbines.
Obligations to decommission equipment or reinstate property (mostly related to project finance provided by Triodos Bank).
During 2020, Triodos Bank has provided a guarantee with a maximum of EUR 20 million to Triodos Investment Management relating to a transaction that was made on behalf of an investment fund managed by Triodos Investment Management. Triodos Bank receives a fee of 0.1% per annum over the maximum guarantee.
Irrevocable facilities
These relate to the total liabilities in respect of irrevocable undertakings, which may lead to a further loan.
