About Rentenbank

Rentenbank is Germany’s development agency for agribusiness. It was established by statute in 1949 as a central refinancing institution for the agricultural and food industry. Within the framework of its legal promotional mandate, Rentenbank provides low-interest loans for agriculture-related investments via other banks in line with its competition neutrality policy.

Sustainable funding strategy

Since 2013, Rentenbank has been issuing green bonds in private-placement format in different currencies. In 2019/20 Rentenbank released its sustainability and green bond web page as well as its first Green Bond Framework and nonfinancial report. Rentenbank is now looking to expand on the issuance of green private placements with public transactions under this framework, for the purpose of reaching a wider investor community.
