Green Trade Finance is a proposition where a trade finance facility (of funded products such as trade loans and receivables finance) is made available to exclusively fund environmentally sustainable trade activities (e.g. purchase, supply or trading, which can be evidenced by underlying trade transaction documents) and adhering to the Green Loan Principles (GLP).The GLP have been developed to promote the integrity and transparency of green finance products by setting the standard for the ‘green’ additionality – the underlying activities funded must provide clear environmental benefits that can be assessed, and where feasible, quantified, measured and reported on.
