  1. 1. Sustainability-Linked Bonds - A Case Study of H&M

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomi

    Author : Waldemar Andersson; Larysa Karsayeva; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainability-linked bond; fast fashion; green financing; transition;

    Abstract : The thesis investigates the sustainability-linked bond issuance by fast fashion company H&M in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. The study contributes to existing literature by providing observations of real-world practitioners on the cost-benefit considerations of SLB issuance, in particular, challenging the notion of a "free lunch", conversely concluding that the greatest concern is attributed to potential reputational damage in the event of missed targets.
