Housing New Zealand Sustainability Financing Framework
The Housing New Zealand Sustainability Financing Framework (Framework) has been developed to demonstrate how Housing New Zealand (HNZ) intends to enter into Sustainability Financing Transactions (SFT) with proceeds earmarked to finance, or refinance, projects and expenditures that will deliver positive environmental and social outcomes and support HNZ’s strategy and vision.
The decision to develop this Framework was motivated by an undertaking to further embed environmental and social considerations in processes and practices across core HNZ business activities. Ensuring the Framework demonstrates alignment with and contribution to the SDGs was an additional consideration to build on this work and position HNZ as a leader in this space.
