Frasers Centrepoint Trust bags $419m green loan, carbon credits from OCBC

The loan will be used to accelerate Tampines 1’s journey to carbon neutrality amongst others.

Frasers Centrepoint Trust (FCT) secured a $419 million green loan and carbon credits from OCBC.

In a bourse filing, FCT said it will use the loan for “the refinancing of a maturing facility, asset enhancement initiatives, decarbonisation projects such as procurement of energy-efficient technology for Tampines 1 and other general corporate purposes.”

Meanwhile, FCT will invest the carbon credits it sourced through OCBC’s Emissions Trading Desk in Verra or Gold standard certified carbon reduction nature-based projects.

“The amount of carbon reduced will be equivalent to the financed emissions associated with the green loan,” FCT explained.

FCT will further purchase additional carbon credits to account for the residual and unavoidable Scopes 1 and 2 as well as energy-related Scope 3 emissions of Tampines 1’s carbon footprint.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
