Annual External Review
Second Party Opinion on Green Bond Framework
BNP Paribas has appointed an independent second party opinion provider to assess the
sustainability of its Green Bond Framework and in particular the dual selection criteria (second
party opinion provider and BNP Paribas), to provide a Second Party Opinion on its Green Bond
Framework and to confirm its alignment with the ICMA Green Bond Principles. The Green Bond
Framework and Second Party Opinion are available on BNP Paribas' Investors' website:
https://invest.bnpparibas.com/en/green-bond-issues. This Second Party Opinion on the Green
Bond Framework will be published as and when BNP Paribas Framework is updated.
For the avoidance of doubt, Green Asset Categories not reviewed by an independent second
party opinion provider, either in whole or in part, would require an updated version of the Second
Party Opinion on the Green Bond Framework before their insertion in BNP Paribas' single
common pool of Eligible Green Assets.
Second Party Opinion on Eligible Green Assets
On an annual basis, an independent second party opinion provider will provide a verification of the
compliance of all the new Eligible Green assets added within the course of the year.
Independent Assurance Review
The external independent auditors will provide, on an annual basis, assurance on the allocation of
the net proceeds of the Securities to Eligible Green Assets, the conformity of the Eligible Green
Assets with the Eligibility Criteria, the relevant impact indicators.
These reports will be available on BNP Paribas' Investors' website:
