Regulatory News:
Arkema (Paris:AKE) successfully placed today a new €500 million green bond with an 8-year maturity and an annual coupon of 3.50%.
This issuance builds on the green bond launched 5 years ago to finance its 100% bio-based Rilsan® polyamide 11 plant in Singapore. It enables the Group to further align its financing strategy with its sustainability commitments, particularly regarding the climate and the development of sustainable and innovative solutions.
