Weaving sustainability into your property investment portfolio

CapitaLand Ascott Trust’s (CLAS) partnership with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) saw the launch of IFC’s first sustainability-linked bond in the hospitality sector.

Proceeds from the bond, which is issued at a fixed coupon rate of 1.05% per annum, will go towards refinancing CLAS’ loans and ramping up decarbonisation efforts for three of its serviced residences in Southeast Asia— Ascott Jakarta, as well as Ascott Makati and Somerset Millennium Makati in the Philippines.

This will be a key initiative as the Group works towards reducing its carbon imprint, improving water conservation and resilience, and enabling a circular economy, as established in the CapitaLand 2030 Sustainability Master Plan.

As individuals, you can weave environmental sustainability into your investment portfolio too.

With Singapore steering towards the Singapore Green Plan 2030, of which goals include ensuring that 80% of new buildings— as measured by gross floor area— is of Super Low Energy (SLE), you can consider eco-friendly properties in furthering your property investment journey.
