Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation
The European Union has set in motion a legislative program regarding environmental, social and governance (ESG) for the financial services industry. Part of this package is the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (or “SFDR”).
SFDR at the fund level
On the basis of the SFDR, financial market participants are required to indicate how they handle sustainability risks and to detail the consequences of this approach. In addition, the regulation contains transparency requirements at fund level.
Debt Funding
The ARC Fund has a well-diversified funding structure, consisting of a combination of secured and unsecured bank debt, an unsecured U.S. private placement (USPP) and an unsecured green bond.
