BNY Mellon Corporate Trust has been appointed as trustee, registrar, paying agent and transfer agent for the first green bonds of Brazilian food company BRF S.A.

Denominated in euros, the offering is a €500 million senior notes issuance, with proceeds ear-marked for projects in energy efficiency, water management, sustainable and efficient packaging, sustainable forest management and reduction in the use of raw materials.

BNY Mellon will provide environmental finance products such as custody of carbon credits, environmental trusts and escrows, green bonds and project finance.
