The two new deposits – Sustainable Time Deposit (TD) and Sustainable Minimum Maturity Time Deposits (MMTD) – are based upon Citi’s green and social bond frameworks, supporting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Funds invested into the deposits are allocated to finance or refinance assets in a portfolio of eligible green and/or social finance projects, based on criteria set in the Citi Green Bond Framework, Social Finance Framework and Social Bond for Affordable Housing Framework.
Types of projects being financed include:
Green projects including renewable energy, energy efficiency, sustainable transportation, green building, and water quality and conservation.
