EUROFIMA, European Company for the Financing of Railroad Rolling Stock, is pleased to announce the conclusion of a new financing in the amount of EUR 400 million (15 years) with its Italian shareholder Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane S.p.A. 

More specifically, under the scope of the bond, EUROFIMA will finance rolling stock dedicated to regional traffic across Italy: 33 Alstom Jazz EMUs, both in the 4, 5 and 6-car versions, 76 Hitachi Double-deck Vivalto coaches, 8 Alstom E464 Locomotives and 25 Hitachi HTR 312/HTR 412 Tri-mode MUs. The latter are multiple units with 3 power sources, which enable it to operate seamlessly and sustainably on electrified and non-electrified lines and reduce carbon emissions by 50%. 

The financed rolling stock is green and fully aligned to the latest version of the EUROFIMA Green Bond Framework, which has been recently updated (see EUROFIMA releases updated Green Bond Framework) and assessed as “Dark Green” by S&P as SPO. 

EUROFIMA is proud to have concluded this new transaction and to reaffirm both its public mission in Italy supporting the regions with better connections and its commitment to promoting more sustainable and greener means of transportation.
