We advised Gasum Oy in a long-term financing arrangement of a total of EUR 565 million with its current lenders. The arrangement includes term loans and revolving credit facilities. It introduced certain sustainability targets, as the margin of the sustainability-linked revolving loan facility is tied to Gasum’s own sustainability goals, which are related to volumes of renewable gas, production of sustainable biogas, and safety. In addition, a part of the term loans is utilised as a green loan to finance Gasum’s strategic investments into increased biogas production both by expanding its production at the existing plants and by constructing new large-scale plants. Nordea acted as coordinator, OP Corporate Bank as sustainability coordinator, and SEB as co-coordinator and agent of the financing arrangement.
