Green Bond Fact Sheet

A fact sheet detailing a CNY 2 billion green bond issued by the Bank of Zhengzhou on June 5, 2019, with a three-year tenor and proceeds allocated to pollution prevention, clean transport, energy saving, and adaptation.

• The Bank of Zhengzhou issued a senior unsecured green bond on June 5, 2019, for an amount of CNY 2 billion (approximately USD 228 million) with a maturity date of June 5, 2022.
• Proceeds from the bond are allocated to four sectors eligible under the People's Bank of China (PBoC) green bond catalogue: Energy Saving, Clean Transport, Pollution Prevention, and Adaptation. Specific project examples include a watershed management project, a wastewater treatment project, an urban metro/light rail construction project, and a green building with a 2-Start Certification of China Green Building Standards.
• The issuer is required to disclose the allocation of proceeds and environmental performance on a quarterly basis, with an annual post-issuance report to be published by April 30 each year.
• The Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI) included this bond in its database because the project examples align with its green definitions, noting that a previous 2017 green bond from the same issuer was excluded due to links to fossil fuels, specifically a coal-based combined heating project.
