PRESS RELEASE

SNCF GROUP (SINCE 2020)

Proceeds from this pioneering issue will fund sustainable investments by our Group. And by choosing green commercial paper, we’re contributing to the growth of sustainable finance and promoting best practices to step up investment in the green transition.

This is part of a broader strategy to make SNCF Group financial products more sustainable. It began in 2016, when we launched our green bond programme—the fifth-largest in Europe and sixth-largest worldwide.
