Spark Finance amends Sustainability Linked Loans Social Target
Following its announcement on 28 November 2024, Spark Finance Limited has today announced that it has amended its committed revolving sustainability linked loan facilities with Westpac NZ and MUFG Bank to replace the gender representation target with a median gender pay gap target in line with its recently extended committed revolving sustainability linked loan facility with Commonwealth Bank of Australia (together the “SLLs”).
The SLLs have been verified by Det Norske Veritas as aligning with the 2023 APLMA Sustainability Linked Loan Principles.
