Second Party Opinion: Georgian Railway Green Bond Framework

In our view, the Georgian Railway (GR) green bond framework, published May 26, 2021, is aligned with the four components of the Green Bond Principles 2018 (GBP). Georgian Railway, based in Tbilisi, is the country’s only railway operator. It provides freight and passenger railway transportation services, terminal services, and railway infrastructure development, and connects to Georgian ports on the Black Sea as well as rail systems in Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkey. The objectives of GR’s green bond framework correspond to its sustainability commitments of minimizing and mitigating the environmental effects caused by its activities, as well as improving the overall environmental performance of the country’s transportation sector.
