Yinson awarded The BPAM Bond Market Awards 2022 in the Top Issuance category for year 2021 . The award reflects Yinson’s excellent performance and contributions to the Malaysian Bond and Sukuk market throughout last year despite a challenging market environment.

When presenting the award, BPAM acknowledged Yinson as one of the first movers in the Malaysian ESG segment, and recognised the Group’s steadfast commitment to national sustainable agenda as well as our role in accelerating the shift towards sustainable investing in the Malaysian Bond and Sukuk market.

“At Yinson, sustainability and ESG considerations sit at the core of all our decision-making, including our project financing strategies, as we believe this is crucial to our ability to deliver sustained value to our stakeholders. We are humbled by this recognition from BPAM, and encouraged by the amazing support that the financial industry is giving us towards achieving our goal to be carbon neutral by 2030 and net zero by 2050,” said Yinson’s Group Head of Treasury Ong Ken Yong.

Yinson is actively exploring sustainability-linked financing opportunities as part of our overall capital strategy. In December 2021, Yinson created history by raising RM 1.0 billion through the issuance of Malaysia’s first Sustainability-Linked Sukuk. Due to overwhelming demand with an orderbook of RM1.66 billion, the offer size was upsized from an initial target of RM700 million to RM1.0 billion.

The annual BPAM Bond Market Awards are based on the BPAM Bond and ESG League Tables for the year ended 31 December 2021.
