Our sustainability-linked bond framework

As we continue to build upon our robust sustainability strategy, we recognize the value of linking it to our financing strategy. TELUS has therefore chosen to create a Sustainability-Linked Bond Framework (“Framework”) that is aligned with the 5 core components of the Sustainability-Linked Bond Principles (“SLBP”) published by the International Capital Markets Association in June 2020. This Framework outlines the principles that TELUS intends to follow when issuing new sustainability-linked bonds.

Sustainalytics, a leading independent ESG research, ratings and analytics firm, has reviewed the Framework and has concluded that it aligns with the SLBP. Under this Framework, TELUS is reinforcing its previously announced commitment to reducing absolute scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 46 per cent by 2030 from a base year of 2019. These ambitious targets have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative, further demonstrating our global sustainability leadership and support for the world’s fight against climate change.
