DBRS Morningstar Hosts a Frontline Perspectives Webinar Tomorrow: Sustainability-Linked Bonds in the Global Airlines Sector

Transportation
May 29, 2023

Join DBRS Morningstar tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. EDT for a Frontline Perspectives webinar, “Sustainability-Linked Bonds Gaining Altitude with Airlines.” Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations are becoming increasingly integral to companies' strategies, and creditors are becoming more demanding regarding issuers’ sustainability credentials. This has led to a rapid rise in ESG financing instruments, with sustainability-linked bonds (SLBs) becoming one of the fastest-growing categories and a valid alternative to traditional bonds. The carbon-intensive airline industry is one of the top sectors that could potentially benefit from SLBs.

In this Frontline Perspectives webinar, Tim O'Brien, Managing Director, Global Head of Diversified Industries, will moderate the conversation, which will be presented by Rohit Kumar, Assistant Vice President, Diversified Industries, and Edoardo Danieli, Assistant Vice President, European Corporate Credits. We will explore key trends in sustainability-linked financing, take a closer look at recent issuances, and discuss the credit implications for the airlines sector. The presentation will last approximately 20 minutes and will be followed by a Q&A session.
