Evaluation Summary
Sustainalytics is of the opinion that the Navarra Sustainable Finance Framework is
credible and impactful, and aligns with the Sustainability Bond Guidelines 2018. This
assessment is based on the following:
USE OF PROCEEDS The eligible categories for the use of proceeds are
aligned with those recognized by both the Green Bond Principles and
Social Bond Principles. Sustainalytics considers that projects within
the four specified social areas and the eight specified environmental
areas to have positive environmental or social impacts and to
advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
PROJECT EVALUTION / SELECTION Navarra has established an
Interdepartmental Commission, consisting of representatives from
all government departments, to select eligible sections of the General
Budget for financing under the Framework. Sustainalytics considers
this to be in line with market practice.
MANAGEMENT OF PROCEEDS Navarra will use its internal systems to
track the proceeds, and intends to allocate funds from each
sustainable finance instrument to budgetary programmes within the
same fiscal year. Pending allocation, funds will be temporarily
invested in any form of cash, liquidity position or time deposits within
banks or other forms of available short-term liquid investments.
Sustainalytics is of the opinion that this process is in accordance with
market practice.
REPORTING The government of Navarra commits to providing
allocation and impact reporting to investors within one year from the
date of any Sustainable Finance instrument and, afterwards, annually
until the net proceeds have been fully allocated. Allocation reporting
will be provided at the category level, while impact reporting will
include quantitative and qualitative outcomes of financed projects.
Sustainalytics is of the opinion that this process is in accordance with
market practice.
