Michelle Espinach, Sustainable Banking Manager at Banco Promerica Costa Rica, leads all initiatives related to the bank's strategy to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Those include, among others, financing structures for new products, preaching with the example and measure the impact of all the efforts that the bank and its staff are putting into the sustainable strategy. One of her objectives is for Banco Promerica to become the first Costa Rican bank to issue green or sustainable bonds.
Banco Promerica Costa Rica's first sustainable bond issue in Central America paves the way for the region's financial sector to align itself with the latest trends in international finance and refine the environmental and social impact assessment of its operations.
