Sustainability - Linked Financing

Sustainability-Linked Financing

On May 4, 2021, we successfully completed US$1 billion in Sustainability–Linked Bond.

SLBs are debt instruments whose objective is to make the issuer reach ESG targets, which are calibrated based on key performance indicators (KPIs).

A milestone for Natura &Co that kept 40% of debt linked to sustainability, and is the largest-ever single SLB issuance by a Brazilian issuer.
