STENA METALL OPENED THE OSLO STOCK EXCHANGE
Monday, 3 September, Stena Metall had the honor of ringing the opening bell of the Oslo Stock Exchange. The reason being that Stena Metall Group's green bond had been listed that same day.
”This was a special day because it was the first time a company issuing a bond was invited to hold the bell ringing ceremony. Up until now, it had always been companies that were selling shares, said Peter Gustafsson”, Managing Director Stena Metall Finans.
Peter Gustafsson sees a pronounced interest in green bonds right now. Moreover, Stena Metall’s green bond is unique with its connection to advanced, sustainable recycling technology at the Stena Nordic Recycling Center in Halmstad.
”More and more people want to invest sustainably and are thus attracted to the kind of investment we offer with our green bond”.
It’s the first time that Stena Metall Group is issuing a green corporate bond. The amount is 800 MSEK, with a maturity of five years. The money is earmarked to finance the Stena Nordic Recycling Center in Halmstad, which you can read more about in the article on the next page.
