Czech Republic Czech crowns from Accolade

Bonds worth CZK 3 billion were sold in two weeks. The minimum investment amount was CZK 10,000. The bonds with a five-year maturity and an interest rate of 8 pct per year are listed on the Regulated Market of the Prague Stock Exchange. The investor, preparing for the issue of green bonds, developed the so-called Green Finance Framework. These guidelines, in line with the EU Taxonomy, set out the principles that Accolade undertakes to follow in the implementation of its projects. The document was independently reviewed by Sustainalytics.

The record interest in Accolade bonds confirms that investors recognize the need for sustainable investments. It also proves that our decision to invest in high-quality industrial parks, made more than 10 years ago, was the right and profitable one.
Milan Kratina, CEO of Accolade
