Intesa Sanpaolo's IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division acted as Global Coordinator, together with other financial institutions, , in the placement of A2A's inaugural European Green Bond.
This marks the first ever market issuance of a European Green Bond.
A2A's European Green Bond, with a size of EUR 500M and a 10 years maturity, attracted a great interest from investors, with orders reaching 4.4 times the amount offered.
The Division also supported the client in structuring the ESG aspects of the transaction, in compliance with the requirements of Regulation 2023-2631 (‘EU Green Bond Standard’).
The bond proceeds will finance projects fully aligned with the European Taxonomy, playing a central role in implementing the A2A Group's Strategic Plan.
Through this initiative, Intesa Sanpaolo Group confirms its leading role in driving the transition towards a low-emission economy.
