The ‘Viñals Social Bond’, a tribute to our Chairman, José Viñals. José will retire from the Board in May at the end of his nine-year term. Naming our inaugural social bond after him is a fitting way to honour his significant legacy and the impact he has made during his time at the Bank.
Group Chief Executive at Standard Chartered | LinkedIn Top Voice
Last week, we launched our first-ever Social bond, which will support the sustainable development of low-income markets across Standard Chartered’s footprint. With 99% of our social asset base located in Asia, Africa and the Middle East, this issuance will deploy capital across borders into markets where the need for sustainable finance is acute. It serves as evidence of our long-standing commitment to the development and enduring growth of our markets, with proceeds from the offering providing lending to women-led SMEs, financing access to essential services such as healthcare, and education and facilitating investment in affordable basic infrastructure and food security. At our town hall in Hong Kong, it was my pleasure to name the bond the ‘Viñals Social Bond’ after our chairman, José Viñals, who will retire from the Board in May at the end of his nine-year term. José’s outstanding contributions and dedication to the bank will leave a lasting impression on each and every one of us. Naming our inaugural Social bond after his significant legacy and in honour of his impact not just at Standard Chartered, but also across many initiatives outside the bank, was a fitting tribute. #SocialBond

What makes a great partnership? At our inaugural Strategic Partnerships Summit in Hong Kong, we explored just that – bringing together key partners and senior leaders to explore new ways to collaborate, unlock opportunities, and innovate. For over 170 years, we have been connecting clients to a network that offers unique access to sustainable growth opportunities across Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Our expertise and global footprint continue to strengthen our partnerships today. Through thought-provoking discussions and an art installation around our strategy and key external trends, the summit sparked new ideas on how to build even stronger, more impactful collaborations. Thank you to everyone who joined us – we’re excited to build on this momentum and continue to shape the future of our strategic partnerships together. What’s the most valuable lesson you’ve learned from a strong partnership? Share your thoughts below. #PowerOfPartnerships #Collaboration #Innovation
