Ashurst advises EDF on the signature of a €6 billion syndicated credit facility indexed to ESG indicators

Ashurst advised EDF on the signing of a syndicated credit facility, with 36 banks, for an amount of 6 billion euros for a five-year term, renewable twice for one year.

Its cost will be indexed to three Group sustainability performance indicators, in line with the Loan Markets Association's Sustainability Linked Loans Principles:

• direct greenhouse gas emissions ;
• CO2 emissions avoided;
• women among Group executives.

The Paris team was led by partner Eric Fiszelson, accompanied by counsel Audrey Lesage and associate Jeffrey Andrélan.
