Sustainability Financings issued by CDC - Impacts

Since 2017, Caisse des Dépôts has been issuing green, social, and sustainable bonds. Unlike conventional bonds—which finance an issuer’s general activities and debt refinancing—these instruments specifically fund investments with environmental and/or social impacts.

Six Green, Social, or Sustainable Bonds (GSSBs) are currently outstanding, issued between 2021 and 2025 with maturities of 5 or 7 years. In Q4 2025, Caisse des Dépôts launched its new short-term sustainable NEU CP (Negotiable European Commercial Paper) program, executing 42 transactions under this format throughout the year.

To issue GSSBs, Caisse des Dépôts adheres to the Green Bond Principles (GBP) and Social Bond Principles (SBP), market initiatives in which it is an active issuer member. These frameworks establish best practices for such issuances. The institution’s principles for these bonds are detailed in its framework document (latest version dated July 3, 2025, available on the CDC portal). Key requirements include investor reporting, ensuring transparency on both the financial and extra-financial performance of the projects backed by the bonds.

This dataset highlights the impacts of the various assets linked to sustainable financing. By presenting key financial data, it shares the impacts for each asset category, for each issuance, and for the eligible portfolio.
