HSBC Hong Kong Sustainability Improvement Loan

What is the Sustainability Improvement Loan?

An HSBC Sustainability Improvement Loan is a facility which is linked to your sustainability rating. It's designed to help small and medium-sized businesses link the cost of financing to their sustainability performance.

If eligible, your interest rate will be linked to your EcoVadis rating or Hong Kong Green Organisation Certificate (HKGOC) level, reducing the cost of finance if your rating improves in line with agreed targets. Similarly, your interest rate may increase if your rating declines.

Why choose HSBC Sustainability Improvement Loan

Many businesses in the early stages of their sustainability journey have limited resources for measuring their sustainability performance. This solution helps to bridge that gap by improving your ability to access sustainability-linked finance.

Sustainability Improvement Loan is available to eligible HSBC customers seeking a new facility or looking to refinance or convert an existing facility. It encompasses a variety of business loans, including revolving credit facilities, term loans and selected trade finance products.
