Regnan Credit Impact Trust and Pendal Sustainable Australian Fixed Interest Fund invested in the ANZ Banking Group’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Bond 2031, which allocates proceeds toward a diversified portfolio of social and environmental lending activities aligned with the United Nations SDGs.
Proceeds from ANZ’s SDG bonds are used to fund or refinance eligible assets with a strong emphasis on climate action, sustainable cities, clean energy and positive social outcomes.
The bond finances a broad range of projects, with approximately 80 per cent of proceeds allocated to environmental activities and around 20 per cent to social outcomes.
Around two thirds of funding has been directed to projects based in Australia.
On the environmental side, the bond supports the financing of more than 360 large scale renewable energy projects across Australia, India, Hong Kong and other regions. These include wind farms, solar projects and battery energy storage systems.
One example is the development, construction and operation of the 252-megawatt Wambo Stage I and 254-megawatt Wambo Stage II wind farms in south-east Queensland.
Examples of social projects supported include the operation of specialist disability accommodation across Australia, comprising nearly 1,000 beds, as well as the construction of a further 106 specialist disability accommodation homes providing around 350 beds.
The bond has also supported the delivery of more than 1,200 dwellings to be used as social and affordable housing. Investing in an ANZ SDG bond provides exposure to a high-quality Australian bank while directing capital toward a wide range of activities that support climate stability, social inclusion and sustainable economic development.
