Clearer activity identification in your bond framework

Why issuers use Act IDs

When you describe a financed activity in your framework, you are communicating with banks, SPO providers, investors, and data vendors — each of whom may classify activities differently in their own systems.

By referencing an Act ID alongside your description, you give every reader a single, stable point of reference — reducing ambiguity and making your framework easier to work with.

Frameworks and eligible categories

Reference Act IDs in your eligible use of proceeds section to anchor each activity to a standard identifier. Your own language and descriptions still apply — the Act ID simply adds a shared reference that others can use to compare, map, and classify.

Allocation reporting

Include Act IDs in allocation reports to make it straightforward for investors and data vendors to tag holdings and compare your allocation to other issuers financing similar activities.

Impact reporting

Reference Act IDs in impact reports alongside your impact indicators. This links your reported impacts to a known activity reference — making aggregation and comparison across issuers easier.

Market communication

Including Act IDs in your documentation signals to the market that you are participating in shared infrastructure for sustainable finance — a signal of seriousness and transparency.
