Responsible Capital An ESG Loans insight report Introduction The market for green loans, sustainability-linked loans (SLLs) and social loans (collectively, ESG 1 Loans) is growing rapidly. However, it is moving so quickly that it can be hard to get a grip on market trends. We have developed an online platform which helps provide a more complete, and data-driven, picture of the market. Early in 2022, we started gathering and structuring key data on the ESG Loans our EMEA offices have advised on. We worked with our innovation programme (known as NRF Transform) to develop an online platform to collect, store and analyse the data. We are now ready to share our first insights based on the data we have gathered in over 50 ESG Loans across Europe, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific. We plan to provide further and more in-depth insights as our data set grows.
