ESG-linked Revolving Credit Facility for Terna
Intesa Sanpaolo’s IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division participated in a EUR 2.255Bn ESG-linked Revolving Credit Facility for Terna, in pool with other lenders including Cassa Depositi e Prestiti and other leading Italian and international banks.
The financing, which consists of a committed, revolving and ESG-linked credit facility, amends the previous Revolving Credit Facility signed in 2024, extending its maturity by five years and updating its ESG targets.
The Revolving Credit Facility includes specific ESG targets, linked to an incentive and penalty mechanism.
In the transaction, Intesa Sanpaolo’s IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division acted as Agent Bank and, together with the other financial institutions involved, as Joint Mandated Lead Arranger.
