BlackRock and MAS to launch debt program for decarbonization projects in SEA

They seek to raise around US$5b from public and private sources.

BlackRock, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG), Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI), and AIA Group have signed an agreement to create an infrastructure debt program to support decarbonization projects across Southeast Asia.

The Industrial Transformation infrastructure debt program seeks to raise around US$5b from public, private, and philanthropic sources to finance transition projects in the region.

Under the agreement, the parties will explore ways to provide debt financing to private-sector borrowers working to reduce carbon emissions.

They will focus on projects in (a) hard-to-abate sectors, (b) technology for low-carbon solutions, and (c) industrial opportunities.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
