Fiskars Group publishes a Sustainability-Linked Bond Framework 

Fiskars Group has launched a Sustainability-Linked Bond Framework with the aim to align the company’s long-term financing strategy with its sustainability targets. The financial characteristics of the notes are linked to the achievement of two environmental targets, namely reducing GHG emissions from Fiskars Group's own operations (scope 1 and 2) and percentage of suppliers by spend with set science-based emission reduction targets (scope 3).

“Fiskars Group’s purpose is ‘Pioneering design to make the everyday extraordinary’; for our employees, consumers, and other stakeholders. Sustainability is core to this purpose, and we are taking many concrete steps to deliver positive impact. This newly established framework is a great tool which further increases our focus on activities that specifically support our transformation journey. In addition, it will contribute to increasing awareness around our environmental sustainability targets,” says Fiskars Group’s President and CEO, Nathalie Ahlström. 

“We have chosen two of our environmental targets as key performance indicators (KPIs) of this framework. Setting KPIs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in line with the 1.5 degree scenario, in our own operations as well as within our value chain, enables us to reduce our environmental impact and emissions efficiently,” Ahlström continues. 

The Sustainability-Linked Bond Framework has been established in accordance with the Sustainability-Linked Bond Principles (SLBP) 2023 as administered by ICMA (International Capital Markets Association).

The Framework is available on Fiskars Group’s Investor Relations website at: www.fiskarsgroup.com/investors, including a link to the external second party opinion by Moody’s.

Nordea Bank Abp and OP Corporate Bank plc act as joint sustainability structurers in connection with establishing the Framework.
