Standard Chartered Bank Sustainable Finance Impact Report 2021Sustainable Finance at Standard CharteredThe world is less than a decade away from its2030 deadline to deliver on the UN SustainableDevelopment Goals (SDGs).the markets we call home. In the past year alonewe have increased our sustainable asset base by138% to USD 9.2bn.According to a UN report, just 60 per cent ofthe financing needed to achieve the SDGs inlow and middle-income countries is being met.In Africa, this is as low as 10 per cent.1 COVID-19has further widened this financing gap with theOECD estimating that for low and middle-incomecountries the annual financing gap could increaseby up to 70%.2The bank’s commitment to achieve Net Zerofrom our financed emissions by 2050 means thatthere is a lot more impact to deliver and we havea steep challenge ahead of us, particularly given29 of our 59 footprint markets do not at presenthave a commitment to reach net zero by 2050.But it is a challenge for which we are equipped,and we are determined to use our expertise andaccess to lead the way in enabling a sustainabletransition, working tirelessly with our customers,partners and all stakeholders to safeguard ourshared future.”Our markets represent unique challenges, withrapid urbanisation, heightened vulnerability fromclimate change, and significant social and economicdisruption brought by the COVID-19 pandemic.We believe finance is critical in addressing thesechallenges. It also plays a role in taking advantageof the opportunities; to leapfrog to low carbontechnology and accelerate inclusion through digitalsolutions. It enables individuals to build a positivefuture for themselves and their families, businessesto thrive and grow, and governments to delivereconomic prosperity for the wider community.Supporting sustainable and responsible growth,including delivering the SDGs, and the transition tonet-zero, represents a significant opportunity for us.Bill Winters, Group Chief Executive“I am very proud to present ourSustainable Finance Impact Reportfor 2021, showcasing the ways inwhich we are being a force forgood where it matters most.Our core markets across Asia, Africa and theMiddle East are most at risk from climate changeand other wider ESG threats. Despite creatingthe greatest marginal impact per dollar invested,these regions only receive a fraction of the capitalflows they urgently need. With the financinggap running to the trillions, they present a hugeuntapped investment opportunity. At StandardChartered we have responded by acceleratingthe deployment of Sustainable Finance acrossSimon Cooper, CEO, Corporate, Commercial& Institutional Banking“Over the next 10 years, there is a minimum USD10trillion financing requirementin emerging markets, yet lessthan 13% of global investment iscurrently aligned to this.3It is therefore encouraging tosee that more than 70% ofour sustainable finance assets are located inemerging and frontier markets where othersources of capital simply aren’t flowing. We wantto direct more capital into these areas, not justbecause it isn’t getting there fast enough, butbecause there is a disproportionate effect onimpact: a dollar invested can have a significantlydifferent outcome depending on where andhow it is deployed This report shows that theaverage CO2 avoided per dollar of financing is 7times higher in the least, lower and lower-middleincome OECD DAC countries than in developednations.I am particularly proud to present the impactof our COVID-1bn facility where we made USD1 billion of not-for-profit financing available forcompanies that provide goods and services tohelp the fight against COVID-19.”1UNEP Finance Initiative (2018) Rethinking Impact to Finance the SDGs.

In support of this ambition, we providedECA backed project financing to enableconstruction of 62 new offshore wind turbinegenerators which will provide around 600MW ofclean power to the grid once operational. Phase1 of this project will see 10 new turbines comingonline as soon as 2022, with the remainder thefollowing year.6Paul Skelton, Global Head, Client Coverage,CCIBROWSum of investment - BillionsAverage KG CO2 avoided per USD investedThis year, and in line with PCAF guidance,we are separately disclosing the impact of ouroperational green assets and our green assetsunder construction.

The projecthas helped the distribution of electricity from theLauca Dam to Luanda, the capital city of Angola.The Government of Angola has plans to increasethe electrification rate up to 60% by 2030 tocope with the country’s growing urbanisation.This project is aligned with multiple UN SDG goalsincluding 7- Affordable and Clean Energy and11- Sustainable Cities and Communities. StandardChartered acted as the Mandated Lead Arranger,Coordinator & Structuring Bank and Facility Agentfor this significant transaction.Standard Chartered Bank coordinated the USD1.6bn export credit agency (ECA)-backed longterm financing to fund the new Standard GaugeRailway (SGR) from Dar Es Salaam to Dodoma(Makutupora).In addition to co-ordinating ECA relationships,we also acted as co-ordinator of commercial anddevelopment finance investors. This has been thelargest syndicated transaction in sub-Saharan Africaoutside the oil and gas sector to date, but moreimportantly, it has positively changed the acceptednorms on how such deals are structured, how risks aremanaged effectively, and how to balance economic,social and environmental objectives.When complete this railway will be the longest andfastest in East Africa spanning 550kms for lots 1 and2 respectively and benefitting local communities byreducing freight costs by 40%,7 removing 500 lorriesfrom the road, creating more than 8,000 new jobsand improving access to essential public ail-project-on-track-to-create-economic-growth/6

Standard Chartered Bank Sustainable Finance Impact Report 2021Our Social LendingWe want to ensure that communities in our footprinthave access to banking services that will enablethem to grow and prosper. In many of our marketssmall businesses are the powerhouses of theeconomy and are major drivers of job creation.Our commitments to SME lending (USD 15bn Jan2020-Dec 2024) and to microfinance (USD 3bn Jan2020-Dec 2024) are reflected in our asset base andin our impact. We enabled 885,340 microfinanceloans in places like Nepal, Tanzania and Bangladesh.We also provided nearly 20,000 SME loans incountries such as India, Kenya, Pakistan andSri Lanka.Our social lending also incorporates lending foraffordable basic infrastructure (SDGs 6 and 11) andessential services (healthcare and education, SDGs3 and 4). Over the past year our healthcare lendinghas supported the construction of new hospitalsin Ghana and Australia, and our affordable basicinfrastructure portfolio continues to support thedevelopment of key road connections in Uganda andin India, supporting local and regional connectivityand providing employment opportunities.Judy Hsu, CEO Consumer,Private and Business Banking“We are absolutely committed tohelping our SME clients grow andI am glad that we have grown ourSME lending this year in marketswhere we can make the greatest impact.Beyond SME lending, we want to give our clientsmore choices in meeting their investing, saving orborrowing needs sustainably. We are expandingour Sustainable Investing solutions as well aslaunching green deposits and mortgages acrossseveral of our markets; we will continue to workwith our clients on this journey towards a moresustainable future.”Daniel Hanna, Global Headof Sustainable Finance“Standard Chartered is uniquelyplaced to direct capital to supportthe transition where it mattersmost. The places we call home arethe world’s most dynamic countries, and we servethe people and businesses that are the enginesof their growth and are central to the transition.Construction of the EasternRegional Hospital, Koforidua,GhanaWe have provided a loan to support thedesign, construction and equipping of theEastern Regional Hospital at Koforidua,Ghana. The first phase of the project will seethe construction of a 285-bed facility, with thefinal construction having an envisaged 600bed capacity.The project is a significant contribution tothe Ghanaian Government’s commitment tohealthcare infrastructure, especially in theCOVID-19 context, and has received recognitionfrom the President of Ghana, Nana AddoDankwa Akufo-Addo.With 29 of our 59 footprint markets not yetcommitted to net zero by 2050, we want to be acatalyst for change here.The fact that over 84% of our SustainableFinance assets are located in Asia, Africa andthe Middle East is proof that, we are focusedon moving capital to where it matters most.Through our Sustainability Bond Issuances andour world-first Sustainable Deposit product,we are creating unique opportunities for investorsto have an impact on the SDGs in emerging anddeveloping markets, where sustainable finance ismost needed – all through a well understood UKregulated institution.It is great to see a USD 4.8 billion increase in ourGreen Assets year on year, nearly 8 times our 2020balance. This has resulted in a 264% increasein our CO2 avoided from our operational greenassets. We expect this pace of growth, both of ourgreen and sustainable asset baseand our impact, to continue.”7
