Consultation sur les sustainability-linked bonds : notre réponse

Reclaim Finance warns that sustainability-linked bonds (SLBs) are frequently used as instruments for greenwashing, allowing highly destructive companies to label debt as sustainable despite making only marginal efforts toward climate transition. The organization cites HSBC's inclusion of bonds linked to the EACOP project as an example of this risk.

• Sustainability-linked bonds (SLBs) are at high risk of being used as tools for greenwashing because their flexible structure allows highly destructive companies to claim sustainability by committing to only marginal efforts.
• HSBC has been identified in a recent investigation as counting bonds linked to the EACOP project as sustainability-linked bonds.
