Pursuant to the Draft Guideline, not only the green instruments but also other capital markets instruments such as \u201cBlue Debt Instruments\u201d may be considered as green capital markets instruments provided that they meet the criteria under the Draft Guideline.<\/p>\n<p>The main principles and components under the Draft Guideline are as follows:<\/p>\n<p><strong>General Principles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The main conditions to qualify an instrument as a green debt instrument\/green lease certificates are as follows: (i) issuers must confirm under the framework document that the issuance will comply with the principles set out under the Draft Guideline, (ii) issuance proceeds, or a fund equivalent to such amount should be used exclusively to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, new and\/or existing green projects that meet the definition of green project of the Draft Guideline, (iii) the compliance of the green instruments with the Draft Guideline must be certified by an external audit service provider.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFramework Document\u201d in this regard is defined as the document adopted by the board of directors of issuers, conforming (i) the issuer\u2019s green debt instrument\/green lease certificate being in compliance with the main components specified under the Draft Guideline, (ii) the use of proceeds and (iii) the strategy and processes of the respective green debt instrument\/lease certificate.
