in Section 1.2.1.1., point (i), the second paragraph is replaced by the following:

‘The amount for the purpose of (1)(c) shall be calculated by using the following formula 1(c) = (1)(c)(1) + (1)(c)(2) where:

 

(1)(c)(1) represents loans and advances where the use of proceeds is known, including specialised lending as referred to in Article 147(8) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013;

 

(1)(c)(2) represents loans and advances where the use of proceeds is unknown (general loans).’;

(f)

in Section 1.2.1.1, point (i), the third paragraph is replaced by the following:

‘For the purposes of point (1)(c)(1), credit institutions shall consider the gross carrying amount of the exposures where the use of proceeds is known, including specialised lending exposures, to the non-financial undertaking to the extent and proportion that they finance a Taxonomy-aligned economic activity. The assessment of whether that requirement has been met shall be based on information provided by the counterparty on the project or activities to which the proceeds will be applied. Credit institutions shall provide information on the type of economic activity that is financed. Double counting shall not be allowed. Where the same specialised lending exposure is relevant for two environmental objectives, credit institutions shall allocate it to the most relevant objective.’;

(g)

in Section 1.2.1.1, the sixth paragraph of point (i) is replaced by the following:

‘ GAR L&A (for each environmental objective) = (1)(c)/(1)(a). Credit institutions shall disclose the GAR based on CapEx and turnover KPIs and separately the part of the KPI that refers to enabling and transitional activities, where relevant.’;

in Section 1.2.1.1, point (ii), the third paragraph is replaced by the following:

‘For the purposes of point 2(c)(1), credit institutions shall consider the following:

 

(2)(c)(1)(a) the total gross carrying amount of exposures to environmentally sustainable bonds issued in accordance with Union legislation. Current bond issuances qualified as green bonds by issuers whose use of proceeds have to be invested in Taxonomy-eligible economic activities shall be assessed depending on the level of Taxonomy-alignment of economic activities in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2020/852 or of projects financed, based on specific information provided by the issuer for an issuance. Credit institutions shall provide transparency on the kind of economic activity that is being financed. Double counting is not allowed. Where the same green bond can be relevant for two environmental objectives, credit institutions shall allocate it to the most relevant objective.

 

(2)(c)(1)(b) the gross carrying amount of debt securities invested in exposures where the use of proceeds is known, including specialised lending exposures, to the extent that the activities financed are Taxonomy-aligned economic activities. The assessment shall be based on specific information provided by the issuer for that issuance. Double counting is not allowed. Where the same specialised lending exposure can be relevant for two environmental objectives, credit institutions shall allocate it to the most relevant objective. Credit institutions shall provide transparency on the type of economic activity that is financed.’;

(i)

in Section 1.2.1.2, the second, third and fourth paragraphs are replaced by the following:

‘This GAR shall contain disclosures for all the environmental objectives, with a breakdown for enabling activities. For the climate change mitigation, the GAR shall also contain disclosures of transitional activities. Credit institutions shall also provide disclosures of stock and flow.

For exposures where the use of proceeds is known, credit institutions shall consider, for the numerator of the GAR for financial undertakings, the gross carrying amount of loans and advances and debt securities of relevant accounting portfolios to financial undertakings to the extent and proportion in which those exposures finance Taxonomy-aligned economic activities. The assessment of whether that requirement has been met shall be based on information provided by the counterparty. Double counting shall not be allowed. Where the same exposure is relevant for two environmental objectives, credit institutions shall allocate it to the most relevant objective.

For exposures where the use of proceeds is not known, the numerator of the GAR for financial undertakings shall be calculated based on the counterparties’ KPIs calculated under this Regulation. The amount of loans and advances, debt securities and equity holdings of relevant accounting portfolios to financial undertakings to be considered in the numerator of the ratio shall be the sum of their gross carrying amount, weighted by the proportion of Taxonomy-aligned economic activities with breakdown for all the environmental objectives and enabling activities for each counterparty. For the climate change mitigation objective, the breakdown shall also contain transitional activities for each counterparty.

Where the counterparty is another credit institution as defined in Article 4(1), point (1), of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, and, only for this purpose, a multilateral development bank referred to in Article 117(1), second subparagraph, or Article 117(2) of that Regulation, the turnover-based and CapEx based KPIs used shall be the gross carrying amount of debt securities, loans and advances and equity instruments of relevant accounting portfolios weighted by the “Total GAR of the counterparty”, that is gross carrying amount multiplied by “Total GAR” of the counterparty.’;

Climate Change Mitigation: CCM

—

Climate Change Adaptation: CCA

—

Water and Marine Resources: WTR

—

Circular Economy: CE

—

Pollution Prevention and Control: PPC

—

Biodiversity and ecosystems: BIO.

For example, the Activity “Afforestation” would have the Code: CCM 1.1.

Where activities are eligible to make a substantial contribution to more than one objective, the codes for all objectives should be indicated.

For example, if the operator reports that the activity “Construction of new buildings” makes a substantial contribution to climate change mitigation and circular economy, the code would be: CCM 7.1. / CE 3.1.

The same codes should be used in Sections A.1 and A.2 of this template.

In their respective KPIs, where the use of proceeds from the financing is not known, financial undertakings shall compute the financing of economic activities contributing to multiple environmental objectives under the most relevant environmental objective that is reported in bold in this template by non-financial undertakings. An environmental objective may only be reported in bold once in one row to avoid double counting of economic activities in the KPIs of financial undertakings. This shall not apply to the computation of Taxonomy-alignment of economic activities for financial products defined in point (12) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2019/2088. Non-financial undertakings shall also report the extent of eligibility and alignment per environmental objective, that includes alignment with each of environmental objectives for activities contributing substantially to several objectives, by using the template below:
