RHB launched a Sustainalytics validated Sustainable Transition Finance Framework, aligning with global standards to help Malaysian corporates, GLCs and SMEs mobilise capital for credible decarbonisation pathways across multiple sectors, as reported in the Business Review portal.
RHB Banking Group has launched its Sustainable Transition Finance Framework, a comprehensive structure designed to support Malaysian businesses at every stage of their sustainability journey.
Independently validated by Sustainalytics, the framework aligns with ICMA principles and the ASEAN Taxonomy, reinforcing credibility and transparency. It provides clear eligibility criteria for sustainable and transition financing, particularly for hard to abate, high emission and resource intensive sectors often constrained by fragmented funding options.
Group Managing Director and CEO Dato’ Mohd Rashid Mohamad said the framework serves as a strategic roadmap to accelerate Malaysia’s shift towards a low carbon economy, while keeping the transition inclusive and economically viable.
