Evaluation of activities relating to ESG / SDGs
Mizuno concluded a loan contract with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation after being evaluated positively regarding its ESG activity, information disclosure, and business aimed at helping achieve the UN’s SDGs based on Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation’s Positive Impact Finance-Based, Principle Compliance-type ESG / SDGs Syndicated Loan Program. The Positive Impact Finance-Based, Principle Compliance-type ESG / SDGs Syndicated Loan Program does not only evaluate companies based on Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation’s own evaluation standards for evaluating ESG / SDGs but also complies with the principles for positive impact finance of DNV BUSINESS ASSURANCE JAPAN K.K., which is an independent third-party body. The principles for positive impact finance aim to promote the idea of increasing the positive impact that finance can have on the world while decreasing its negative impact, and they were developed by the United Nations Environment Program - Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) in January 2017.
